April was unusual. Again, in a remote mode. The trainer contacted boys from schools in the municipalities of Terjola, Zugdidi, Tsalenjikha, Kutaisi, Senaki, Poti, Lanchkhuti. There were group and individual online conversations. When it is difficult to communicate via the Internet, phone calls are used.

The topic of the month is a man, as the best defender and partner. The guys actively participated in the discussion. According to them, the role of men is special during the crisis - as the best advocates and partners, they must do everything to ensure that their families are not stressed.

The trainer Beka Potskhveria recorded a video lecture for groups of participants. The guys responded actively: they made a video, wrote an essay - all this is posted on the Facebook page of the Fund “Sukhumi”, and thus hundreds of people received important information.
