Joseph and his brother Patrick Githiora, Rose Njeri, were abandoned together by their mother in a place called Ngoingwa in the outskirts of Thika town few days after the father was arrested and put to jail. They were left with no one to take care of them for almost a month where they stayed in a shanty house which was in ruins without food and care.
A Good Samaritan noted the situation and reported the matter to   Thika children’s office .
CRC management was called for a rescue mission which they did without any hesitation. Mwangi has the brightest smile of all, charming and loved by everyone. Mwangi joins school next year 2008.
