Hi Akello Vicky,
Almost 5 years ago I visited your beautiful country! I saw, with my own eyes, some of the horrific consequences of the war. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about the resilience, strength, and beauty of the people I met while there. I received the betty for my birthday this year and absolutely love it! As a knitter myself, I can appreciate all of the hard work you put in to making each of these hats - WEBELE!

I KNOW the people I bought these hats for will absolutely love it. I just wanted to personally thank you. You are inspiring.

Hello Vicky, my name is Jess I live in Michigan. I just received the Betty hat you made and I absolutely love it! Snow season is approaching and I can't wait to wear it boarding.
Your story is so incredibly inspiring. I am so grateful to have come across this amazing organization, allowing me help make a difference. I am doing a persuasive speech on purchasing a hat from the Krochet Kids next week in my class at Central Michigan University. I can't wait to show my peers my hat and share your story. I can only hope they find it as moving as I have. Best of luck to you and your family! THANK YOU again :)

Hi Vicky, my name is Leah and I live in Vancouver, Canada. I purchased this hat (in Canada we call them toques!) from the Krochet Kids online store and I was so excited when it came in the mail. I crochet as well and your work is perfect! I found out about Krochet Kids because I am doing a project on them at school and I can't wait to tell everyone I know to come and support you and this company. THANK YOU for my toque and thank you for being so strong and brave. I cannot imagine what you have gone through and I will continue to pray for you and your family. I thank God that there are people out there who are making a difference in the lives of wonderful people like you. You are an inspiration.

With love and gratitude,
Leah

I really appreciate and look up to you and I know many others do to. Thank you for making me something so special, I will think of you every time I wear it.

Vicky,
Hey! I received a hat made by you for my 21st birthday! I love it! I am a really cold natured person and I wear hats in and outside when it's cold. I wore it this morning for the first time to a marathon in st. Louis, Missouri. I live in cape girardeau Missouri an go to college there. My roommates love my hat and the directors of the campus organization says it's very me! I wish I could send you a picture. I just learned about krochet kids last week and a friend thought I would love the hat and the idea behind it! Thank you so much. I hope things are going well for you and your family! I send love and prayers from America. Have a wonderful day.
Love Kelso

Dear Akello Vicky,
Thank you so much for my beautiful hat. I love it- it has been keeping me very warm as the weather gets chilly in Seattle, WA. Yesterday, I received two compliments on it. I proudly told both about Krochet Kids.
I hope life is treating you kindly.
Much love and respect to you!

Akello Vicky,

I received my hat made by you in the mail today and I could not have been more excited. The hat is beautiful and its going to keep my head warm this winter here at Purdue University in Indiana. You did an amazing job, thank you! Your story is inspiring and you are a strong woman. Best of wishes to you and your family!

Much love from a Boilermaker,

Dear Akello Vicky,
Thank you so much for my beautiful hat! It is absolutely wonderful and one of my favorite things that I own. I wish you and your family the very best! Thank you again!

Dear Akello Vicky,
My name is Zack and am going to college in Altoona Pennsylvania. I have always wanted to get involved with helping people like you in Africa but have not had the opportunity. When i first heard about KKNU i knew i had to order a hat. It was the least i could do. I recieved my hat today and i am so excited to wear it and to tell people your story when they ask where i got it. The craftmanship is incredible and all my friends think it is great too. I read your story and it is so inspiring and now i have a hat that will remind me of it and to pray that you continue to do well for you and your family. Thank you so much and good luck. :)

Dear Akello Vicky,
I came home to find a beautifully hand crafted hat that is now one of my favorites. Thank you!

Dear Vicky,
I just received my beautiful hat that you made in the mail today. It is funny that you and I live in such different worlds, but we have the EXACT same dreams for our future. When it comes right down to it, we are all the same inside. I love my family and children and would do anything for them. We learned about this program and my kids helped me pick out a hat. Economic times are rough and we are trying to make our purchases with a purpose. You have helped me by giving me something to keep me warm against the cold months and I hope I have helped your family. I will think of you every time I wear my lovely hat! You are an inspiration!
Thank You!!!

Hello Vicky,
I just received my hat (the Margot) in the mail. I was so excited to get it and to know I was doing something to help someone. After reading your story it makes me especially happy. I just gave birth to my first child recently and I know there is no love stronger than the one for your child and how no matter what your situation, the urge and need to take care of your children is always there. I hope I could have helped your family in some way. I will continue to pass on the word about this cause and continue to look out for new styles to come so I can order more in the future.. Thank you so much!

Dear Akello Vicky,
Thank you so much for the beautiful hat, I just received it today and I love it already! It was already special to me because my best friend's grandmother bought it for me, and seeing it was made by you and reading your story just added to the lovely sentiment. Throughout high school I learned about the brutality in Uganda and actively tried to fight against the genocide by joining the Invisible Children club, where we raised funds and sponsored activities to spread awareness. I found KKi online and read about the cause, and had to have one of the hats! I am so happy it was made by you and that the money is supporting your family and others like you. Thank you, from the obttom of my heart.

Dear Akello Vicky,
During my senior year of high school, we had a senior research project that required us to read a non-fiction book. I choose “A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier” by Ishmael Beah and "The Enough Moment" by John Prendergast because I wanted to hear what the war was like through the people that were effected by it. After finishing both books I wanted a way to help those that were suffering from the brutality, and I found KKi.

You are a true hero, for your family and those around you by crochet these products. I hope that through my contribution along with everyone else that buys something from KKi will help you succeed in your goals.

Thank you,
-Nicole C.

Thank you Akello Vicky! I've been wearing my 5207.5 for months now and I get so many compliments.
Good luck to you and your family,

-Jordan
