Look at this wooden hut. Even cattle would be spared and would not be allowed to spend the night here. However, unfortunately, it is not cattle that live here, but these five angelic children. At the slightest breath of wind, the house rocks like a cradle. Before going to bed, the children ask God for the morning to come for them. At this age, children think about toys. In the Khachiperadze family, the only concern of the children is to save their own lives. These brick walls were built with the help of the local government for the Khachiperadze family (Baghdad Municipality, Obcha village). However, there are only walls here. No floor, no windows. The children’s mother, Inga Samadalashvili, who is raising five children all by herself, is embarrassed to ask kind people for help, although she has a great desire to do so. Before leaving, the five little angels, with tears in their eyes, addressed the Fund’s correspondent – “Auntie, Mom has no money to finish building this house. If kind people help us, to make at least just the ceiling and the floor, we promise that when we grow up and work, we will repay these people with kindness.”

This is three-year-old Saba. Take a close look at the child’s T-shirt. Even at a landfill, you’d find a T-shirt in better condition than this one. But the most alarming thing is that Saba has a high fever. Sadly, his single mother can’t buy medicine at the pharmacy because of her dire financial situation. Look at him—he’s drinking hot water without sugar or jam. And no, you’re not mistaken—there’s only hot water in that cup. In his other hand, this little angel holds a dry piece of bread. There isn’t even a slice of cheese in the house. The Khubashvili family has five young children. You’ll hardly ever see smiles on their faces. Oh God, oh God! This is so heartbreaking! Kind people! These little angels have been left at the mercy of fate. The most heartbreaking thing is that with each passing day, they are losing faith. We cannot let this happen! Kind people let’s not abandon these children—already abandoned by their father. A long winter with dark, cold days lies ahead. But kindness, care, and love can brighten even the gloomiest days for these little ones.

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.

Due to the incessant itching, the baby cries day and night without relief! “Nicholas’s whole body is covered in sores. His skin is cracked, itchy, and bleeding. Exhausted, he is ready to tear his skin off, and when he is not allowed to scratch his wounded body, he cries and screams so much that it breaks my, my sick mother’s, and my husband’s hearts! – says Mariam, the boy’s mother. And all this horror happens just because the doctors made the wrong diagnosis. Such a cute boy! Poor thing almost died during the week he spent in the intensive care unit!”

The Makhitashvili family, whose fragile roof collapsed during a hurricane, no longer has to huddle in a temporary shelter. From an abandoned school building, they’ve finally returned to their home. Who knows how long they might have suffered if the Chernovetskyi Fund hadn’t written letters to the officials responsible for their welfare. The result of our reminder was impressive – the local administration stepped in and built the Makhitashvili family a new roof.

Этот трёхлетний ангелочек, увидев корреспондента фонда, в знак мольбы приложил ручонку к горлу. Ребёнок своим грустным взглядом и глазами, полными слёз, просит спасти его. Человеческому сердцу трудно вынести столь трогательную сцену. Трёхлетние братья-близнецы Леван и Давид – среди развалин сгоревшего дома. В семье Мчедлишвили произошла настоящая беда: дом, в котором сладко спали шестеро маленьких детей, внезапно загорелся. Крик шокированной и отчаявшейся матери достигал до небес: «Спаси моих детей, Господи!» Эти маленькие ангелочки сгорели бы в огне, и от них не осталось бы даже пепла, если бы не чудо Господне! Чудом спасённые от смерти трёхлетние близнецы Леван и Давид вот так крепко обнимают друг друга. У бедных детей ничего не осталось в этом мире, кроме обгоревших стен
