Thank you for your hard work and inspiration to us all!

Hello Akweyo,

I received your beautiful grey hat as a gift from my coworker. Your work is beautiful, as are your smile and life story. I am so grateful to you and am inspired by your dreams to provide your family members with an education (I am an English teacher in California and my dream is to give a quality education to each of my students).

With appreciation,
Jan

Hello Akweyo,
It is amazing that a small hand signed tag inside a hat can connect two people across the world! Thank you so much for making such a beautiful hat - the crochet work is what I first noticed about the hat, and to find that it was handmade was such a pleasant surprise. You do very lovely work and I wear my hat with pride knowing you created each stitch.

My sister can crochet, but I cannot, and I have always been amazed by the art of crocheting.

I am looking forward to looking at the other products you've made and purchase more.
Much love to you and your family,

~Jill

Dear Akweyo Irene,

Thanks again, and may God bless you and your family!

Hello Irene! Thank you for my beautiful cream beanie! It is so beautiful and comfy. You really do fantastic work! I received it as a gift and was so excited when I found out about this company and that you have hand signed it. It really makes it special. Thank you again!

Thank you so much for the beautiful hat that I received from my sister as a gift. I hope your dreams come true and your daughter goes to the university and you are able to take over your families business. This was my favorite gift I received and I am so thankful it was made by you and not a big company. My God bless you and your family :)

Dear Irene,
I have one of the hats that you made and I want to say thank you!! It is a beautiful grey color and it is so warm. It is so nice to know that it is homemade. You seem like a wonderful person and a very hard worker. I am sure that you will achieve all of the dreams you hope for!

Dear Irene,
I cannot tell you how surprised and happy I was when I just recently discovered your name on my most favourite beanie's inside tag! It is such a heartwarming feeling to know that such care and warmth went into making this hat that keeps me warm (now inside and out). I live in Australia and teach school kids. I send you light and love, and hope all your dreams come true for you, your family, and your community. You are very lovely and thanks for such a wonderful hat!
Take care, Ilsa :)

Dear Irene,

IRENE,
Thank you so much for the beanie! It is extremely well made and knowing who made it makes it even more of a blessing to wear. I have been to Kampala, Uganda back in 2007 and I must say you live in a beautiful country. I know many struggle where you live, but I'm glad you are able to help those around you now. Your dream for the future is rare and special. May God bless you in all your endeavors that you set your hand to do.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. -Jeremiah 29:11-12

Hi Irene!

Thank you for inspiring me with your story, I hope to grow into a strong woman like you with such wonderful and admirable ambitions. I love your smile by the way & I wish you the best in everything you do as well as much happiness and love and health, warm hugs. :)

Hi, Irene! My name is Rebecca and I live near Miami Florida. I love the hat you made and am touched by your story. My hat is very pretty. You are amazingly talented. You have shown me that even in a tough situation, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. I hope you are doing well and wish you the best. <3

Hi Irene,
My name is Jake and I want to thank you for the "beanie". In my youth that was the name given to the knit cap you made. For me, this is very symbolic in that it has a story. The knit cap is a symbol for healing and your spirituality has transcended through this act of kindness. I am glad to have made a good connection. Take care of yourself and loved ones and have a great year!
Sincerely,
Jake
