The goal of our Fund is to open the hearts of the fund’s friends to the Lord! And the Lord shows us more and more new misfortunes! Thank you, Lord! Because from story to story, we increasingly become the people You intended us to be when You created mankind! Meet Maia! She is a former orphanage resident and she was sheltered by kind people for some time. Maia is 58 years old! She is lonely and deeply, deeply unhappy! And in her old age, she suddenly found herself in the position of a homeless dog! In November 2023, my room burned down in the dorm where I lived, – says Maya- you can’t imagine what it’s like to turn into a homeless dog at my age! Because the local authorities put me in a completely demolished former police station! Fate turned away from her early in her childhood when her parents left her and placed her in an orphanage. Little Maia sat by the window, waiting for her mother to come for her… waiting to be remembered.

Until the age of seven, Tedo couldn’t move a single finger. He wouldn’t have been able to swat away a wasp even if it were eating his eye. The doctors said he would die, but his mother brought him back from the brink every time! Before you is a gravely ill and unfortunate but handsome Georgian boy, Tedo! Until the age of seven, he lay in bed neither alive nor dead. During childbirth, the baby likely slipped from the hands of the midwife and injured his head, even though he was born perfectly healthy! A tragedy beyond comparison befell Tedo’s family! One day, a wasp landed on the boy’s eye, and he couldn’t brush it away. Unlike bees, wasps sting without provocation. They are just aggressive! It’s a miracle that Shorena, the boy’s mother, was always by his side. Just a second more, and Tedo might have lost his eye! My God, unfortunately, you have heard so many such stories from us, friends, about many Georgian hospitals, especially those located in the provinces, far away from Tbilisi.

The scoundrel husband left the unfortunate woman as soon as he found out that their son was born with a terrible disease – autism! Georgi clings to his mother like a child who can’t live a day without her love. So handsome and so miserable. Two deeply unhappy people, two tragedies. Mother and son—they are alone in this cruel world. Without means to live, without food and medications, and with the relentless threat from their landlord to throw them out like dogs onto the street! to this joyless life with all I have. Because if I die, what will happen to Giorgi? His father and my other child—my daughter—forgot about us long ago. Sometimes Eteri looks sadly at old photos, remembering when she was happy! Besides Giorgi, she had a beloved daughter, Nini. Such a sweet little girl. But as she grew, by the age of 14, she suddenly became cruel! She lost her heart and conscience, never to be found again by her dying mother!

Iamze (the mother of these two adorable kids!): “I’m an orphan with living parents! My children have no grandparents. My husband is in prison for the second time! He deceived me when we got married. At first, he stole, and then he turned out to be a sadist and beat me so hard in front of the children that now I’m very afraid for their mental health! And I understand: he came to me because of housing and wanted to kill me! And the children… He never loved our children! He would give them away to strangers. Such children!!! I’m not asking for anything for myself, but I won’t be able to live if my children are not saved from hunger and cold in winter! They shouldn’t repeat my terrible fate!”

Not long ago, the eyes of the four little Berdzenishvili children from Saguramo were filled with sadness and fear. The little angels were eating dry bread.  Eleven-year-old Dachi went to school in old clothes. The beautiful sisters – Barbare, Nini, and Anastasia – dreamed of toys and new dresses. The children slept on rusty beds, and their bones ached. The children’s father is ill and unable to work, and their mother couldn’t leave the children alone, so poverty had taken deep root in their home, and hopelessness shone through the eyes of the four little angels. Today, for the first time, their eyes shine with happiness because a miracle has happened and all their wishes have come true. We share with you a photo collage that once again convinces us that kindness is a blessing from God within us.  With every good deed we come closer to the Lord.

Eteri (mother, 30 years old): “My beloved child Ilia is sick! Because of constant hunger, I feel like he’s losing interest in life! It hurts me so much! He’s starting to develop a severe mental illness. He’s talking more and more about death! And he’s just a child! He shouldn’t even know that word. A single visit to the doctor costs 700 lari”. I’m ready to give my life just to see my children fully fed and without stomach pains even once. They are my everything! How can it be that this little angel, Eva, came into this world only to go hungry all the time? Her stomach hurts so much from hunger that she can’t even sleep!” This is food for a day for six people! Even during the war with the fascists, people weren’t fed like this! This is the daily ration for four children and their two parents! The key is to divide the egg into six parts so that no one feels left out!
