Soup Kitchen Program                                           Top

 

Purpose of the project:  to deliver hot meal to needy people (invalids, elderly, multichild families, IDP-s, families without supporter and rest needy people). Beneficiaries receive their meal in Soup Kitchens. So selling of this meal and any other changes of this course are avoided. This ordinary food which is in this kind of Soup Kitchens attracts the most needy people. Except this  SKs help to decrease the expanses of the needy people and physical work which is needed for getting the meal. It is especially difficult to prepare the hot meal at home in winter when there is power deficit and high prices of kerosene, which doesn’t give any opportunity for the needy people to prepare their hot meal in winter. They avoid isolated and desperate way of life by everyday attendance of the SK, they make contacts with each other, which is especially valuable for those who live alone. Church network and “Lazarus” experience helped to carry out the successful work of SK program.  The purpose of the project is capacity-building of “Lazarus” and its help to needy people in Georgia.

 

From January 1995 till January 2000 the project has been implementing by the help of different donors in different regions of Georgia.
