This is the story of just one of the children we are hoping to help.

This is a picture of Mena. He is 16 years old and one of the full-time residents at the Good Samaritan Home in Luxor.
Mena is severely disabled. His mother didn't know what to do with him so she kept him in a cage. The only contact she would have with her son was to open the cage door once a day to put in food and water. He was found naked and covered in his own excrement ![]()
Due to restricted movement in the cage, Mena needed many hours of physiotherapy to help him learn to walk again. He couldn't talk and would only communicate with grunts.
Today, Mena is still unable to talk, but is a very affectionate and happy boy....
