Life at Dzegvi

A Little More
About Us & Our Work . . .

CCRFund had its beginnings when we delivered medical supplies donated by the concerned women of Anchorage, Alaska, to the Dzegvi Orphanage complex near Tbilisi, Georgia. Thank you, Margot. Our lives will never be the same.

After that, friends and family began to donate money that we used to buy medicine, food, soaps and personal hygiene items, blankets, clothes and even some balls and toys. Every child and staff member received a new heavy wool blanket and flannel pajamas before winter set in.

Dzegvi Orphanage has no budgeted support. Zero. It, and the lives of these children, depend entirely on donations. CCRFund is not the only helping hand, of course. Dzegvi receives help from the foreign community in Georgia, from caring Georgians in and away from Georgia, and even from foreigners who have left Georgia but still keep Dzegvi in their hearts.

Telavi Children’s Home does receive budget support that amounts to a little over $1 per day per child. That amount covers staff, food, utilities . . . everything. It’s far short of enough.
