Focus Country

Support for Kids Organization was founded to provide help for state orphanages in the country of Georgia. Georgia is a small extremely independent country formerly part of the old Soviet Union. She has an ongoing fight for economic and political survival.

Georgia is situated in Southern Caucasus mountains at the crossroads of Europe and Asia. It lies between the Black and Caspian Seas and is bordered by Turkey, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Russia as shown in the maps below.

 Georgia fought for and gained independence from the former Soviet Union  in 1991. Georgia has suffered from the breakdown of markets for the products she produced as part of the old Soviet Union. Georgia has worked hard to establish a new economic and political position in the world. Georgia has struggled with internal strife with the civil wars of 1992 dividing part of the country and again in  August of 2008 which was ended by an invasion of Georgia by Russian troops into Georgian sovereign territory. One of the results of this turmoil is displaced or orphaned kids who need our help.
