Thank you countless times for deploying large-scale help! Thanks to more than two thousands of your active responses to this story, much has been accomplished for the Kantelashvili family. The support has been amazing! Thank you very much, friends, from the whole team of the Chernovetskyi Fund! Among the unresolved issues is the fact that the family does not have a bathroom. Also they do not have a heater for winter. None of us wants Alexi to go back to scrap collecting. We can avoid this by continuing to help the family. Join the ranks of the project’s regular helpers! And if you’re feeling down about household problems or unresolved issues, take a second to look at our Facebook posts. Or better yet, call any of our beneficiaries and all your problems will seem unimportant compared to the problems of the person you came to help in the most difficult moment of his life.

For five months, Georgian doctors have been unable to diagnose this unfortunate boy. Giorgi’s time is running out! Five months ago, a completely healthy boy suddenly fell ill, and since then, the sound of death’s footsteps has grown louder and louder in the Ochkhorashvili family. The child is suffocating. He coughs so loudly it seems like his lungs are torn. He has stopped talking and makes sounds as if someone has cut his vocal cords. He can only get food and water through the tube, but he vomits it back out. The oxygen machine is the only thing keeping him alive. But for how long??? The boy’s life timer is on. Turn on the video and you will hear the sounds of death! Father Giorgi and Nikoloz and Gogi’s mother are begging for help to raise money for the trip to Germany for an examination! We will announce the cost of the surgery once we receive the papers! Lord, help! Since there are already very few of us left in Georgia….

Friends, tragedy has struck a Georgian family—the Kvinikadzes. A sudden fire engulfed their home. The desperate cries of the children— “Help us!” —seemed to reach the heavens. Maybe they truly did. Because somehow, miraculously, the children were saved from being consumed by the flames. But little Nikoloz, just two years old, still bears the scars of the fire on his legs. Local authorities promised to help rebuild the hous next to the ruins, but the family has lost all hope. And you might be wondering—why? Why have they lost faith that the state will keep its word? Because after losing everything, the family turned to local authorities for urgent aid – just 1,500 GEL to help them get by. They were promised this amount, but they are still waiting. And so, they have no reason to believe that help will come. Their only hope now is you. To be fair, the Gori local government has been covering the rent for the seven-member family, who are temporarily living in a cramped two-room apartment. But for how long? And how can these children continue  living in such conditions? Even if you donate just one lari, it will bring these little angels one step closer to having a home again – no matter how small.
Georgia must come together! If each of us contributes enough for just one brick, these children will no longer be homeless. And this kindness it will come back to you, to your children, to your grandchildren, in ways only God can know.

Just imagine what young, beautiful Ketevan must feel, being confined to a wheelchair at just 26 years old! One unfortunate day, she couldn’t take a single step—her legs just stopped responding. Her condition gets worse every day, but the family can’t afford the medical tests she needs. And without the correct diagnosis, there can be no treatment. To find out what’s tormenting Ketevan, she urgently needs an MRI of her brain and spine. For a family living in a village, with two small children—one of them seriously ill—this is an impossible expense.

This is three-year-old Giorgi. The child is hungry, and the only food in the house is one piece of bread. The starving boy started to eat the bread eagerly but then stopped. His big blue eyes looked up at the foundation’s correspondent, and timidly, he offered her the only piece he had, saying: “Auntie, you must be hungry too.  Please, eat.” This kind boy’s clothes are so worn out that even a dump might have better options. The boy is sick, running a high fever, and has the flu. But his single mother cannot afford to buy medicine due to extreme poverty. The child can no longer bear the hardship, illness, and suffering, and so he cries bitterly. Look into his eyes, even for a moment! Do you think this is a scene from a dramatic movie? It’s not. No actor could ever portray the pain in the eyes of this little angel. And yet, he’s only three years old.

This adorable child is three-year-old Luka from the city of Gori. The child will soon turn four, but on his birthday, instead of balloons and colorful candles, suffering awaits him. The thing is, Luka cannot walk or even crawl. The biggest tragedy is that the child cannot say a word. He also cannot eat solid food. It is so terrible!

Luka’s poor mother has no money to provide her child with full treatment abroad. Doctors in Georgia were unable to cure him.

The child’s condition was carefully assessed in a Turkish clinic, and fortunately, the child has every chance of a full recovery. For this, exomatherapy is needed. This procedure activates brain cells.

The cost of one procedure is 1 200 euros. The child needs 4 procedures, which means that the recovery of this poor child will require a total of 4 800 euros.
