As the first born child of seven, Beatrice assumed her mother’s role in taking care of her siblings when both of her parents died. During the war in northern Uganda, Beatrice and her family jumped from town to town in search for safety which made life unexpected and unstable. Now that she is working at KK Uganda, she is earning a steady income and is able to buy food and support her children in school.

DREAMS FOR THE FUTURE
“I want to buy a plot of land for my children and educate them as long as I can.”

FAVORITE THING ABOUT NORTHERN UGANDA
“The most beautiful thing about northern Uganda is the fertile soil and the food that we are beginning to experience.”

MESSAGE TO KK intl.

Amony Beatrice,
Thank you so much for the wonderful hat. I received it as a Christmas gift and have been wearing it in the snow and cold ever since. I do not hesitate to let my friends feel the hat's softness and explain the story behind it when they ask. The hat is beautifully made and comes in handy often. I hope you keep up the good work and are able to earn that plot of land and continue your children's education. Best of luck to you!

I am wearing your beautifully knit hat right now as I type this. It is very warm to wear as here in New Jersey, USA, it is getting very cold and we have to wear layers over our bodies now. I thank you for taking the time to make this and am very glad that you are able to better support your children. As a mother, I know how important that is. Thank you once again! You have a beautiful smile! May you be able to get your plot of land soon!

Thank you Amony Beatrice! I bought a striped hat you made at the Snowbomb Ski festival in San Francisco a couple weeks ago. I don't usually buy crochet items because I can make them myself but I was inspired to buy something that I know benefits another woman. The hat is perfect, I've already worn it several times! I will definitely be purchasing more from Krochet Kids. Thank you, again!

Hi Beatrice,

I am not a hat girl but when I saw your creation (The Lilly) at a music festival a couple weeks ago, I just had to have it. Then when I found out what Krochet Kids is all about, I was definitely sold! My boyfriend picked out the seafoam color and I wear it all the time, even around the house! Thank you for making such a beautiful product, and I hope that my small contribution helps you and your family. I admire you and think of you every time I put on my awesome beanie.

Dearest Beatrice,
My hat is absolutely lovely! Thank you for making it with lots of care. It is my favorite hat and is so special because it is hand made by someone who's face I can see and someone I can know a little bit about. I hope you, your family and children are well. Your children and siblings must be so proud of your hard work!

Dear Amony Beatrice,

People like me who live peaceful and privileged lives forget that there are millions of people like you who struggle everyday. War, poverty, sickness - these are harsh realities that a lot of us forget but so many experience every day.

Thank you for making this beautiful hat. This hat will remind me everyday that I have to be thankful for the life that I have and that it is my responsibility to do what I can to help make the world a better place. I will help spread the word about Krochet Kids and your wonderful work.

With love,
Aina

Thank you for all the love and care you put into making my hat. My brother gave it to me for Christmas and I love it! I wear it everyday to and from work and school. I live in central Illinois where lots of corn is grown. The land is flat so it gets very cold (18F or -8C) and windy here!! I wish you and your family health and prosperity in this new year!
