Joseph Golden 11 y/o

12
Birthday: 16.06.2013
With Kasisi since: 18.02.2019

The boy came to Kasisi on February 18, 2019, brought by social services representatives. For several days, Zambian media, including newspapers and Facebook profiles, had been widely discussing Joseph. His father, in a desperate situation, reached out to the media. He was pleading for someone to adopt his son as he could no longer provide the necessary care and living conditions. Joseph bid farewell to his father without showing any clear signs of sadness and initially reacted nervously to everyone around him at Kasisi. He was visibly withdrawn and did not speak.

How am I doing?

OCTOBER 2024
Joseph is in a much better state, and his health has improved. Recently, he has become calmer and is more eager to connect with others.
APRIL 2024
His health has greatly improved. We finally managed to heal the wounds on his head, having found a remedy that worked instantly. We hope the effect will last. Golden has become more trusting towards others. He spends a lot more time with the boys outside, enjoying their company.
JULY 2023
It seemed that in the Don Bosco boys' home, Joseph would live more alongside his peers, without forming strong bonds.  And they welcomed him like a beloved little brother to be cared for and protected. It is amazing how they are able to include him in their lives. They ask questions, tell him stories, yet they know he will never answer them or laugh with them.

Severe epileptic seizures still occur unexpectedly, but fortunately much less frequently now. The boy is now in much better health. He is looked after on a daily basis by his mum Peggy, who has stolen his heart.
MARCH 2023

His condition is stable, although he still has epileptic seizures. He is on medication all the time.

MAY 2021
Golden has various skin diseases and severe epilepsy. Despite medication, severe seizures do occur. He is constantly receiving treatment.
JULY 2019
The sisters changed the boy's name, so we'd like to introduce Golden Joseph:) He is a child with special needs. He recently had his first pediatric examination. Doctors are checking to see whether the year he spent living on the streets affected his development. Things got quite emotional during the examination but a lollipop was all it took to assuage the little boy's fears :)

Passport to the Future – Donate a School Starter Kit

A school kit includes notebooks, allowing children to study at home. It also includes a pair of shoes, which, if not for Kasisi, they would have to borrow from their siblings. And finally, a delicious, healthy sandwich in the backpack, which gives them the energy they need for their studies. Just like the sandwich their mother would prepare. You can pack one into their backpack today—from right here, from your own home.
