Life in Racha turned out to be difficult for those left without a job.

“We have been wrestling with this situation for 4 years. One day a representative of Caritas Czech Republic visited us and told us that under the Slovak grant, 40 chickens would be given to us as a gift. This opportunity made our stay in Racha more realistic. I felt thought that a large family with a small farm (which means raising chickens and laying eggs) would be able to get ourselves out of this situation. In the fall we received as a gift 40 winged chickens, 8 bags of food and a veterinary package. "Caritas Czech Republic has really changed my life and living on a small farm in Racha has now become promising." Says Ani Butskhrikidze.
