Rose and her six siblings were raised by their loving grandmother after losing their Mother at a young age. To help support the family, she and her brothers had to dropout of school to farm neighbors’ garden for very little pay. Sadly, Rose was abducted at the age of 13 by the LRA. She was in captivity for a whole year and experienced unthinkable things. At one point she sustained a bullet wound during a fight between the government soldiers and the rebels. Fortunately, Rose escaped and things have turned around for her. Since entering the KK Uganda program, she has been providing meals for her family and for the first time in a while, she can think about planning for her future.

DREAMS FOR HER FUTURE
“I dream of buying a piece of land for my children. I also want to pay for my children to attend higher levels of education so they can have a brighter future.”

LOVE DEFINED
“Love means staying in harmony with one another and being with them during both the good and bad times.”

MESSAGE TO KK intl.
“I am filled with so much thanks and appreciation for the goodness you have done to the women of Northern Uganda. Blessings to you and your families.”

Lamaro Rose - Thank you so much for the beautiful gray scarf you made. It is so soft and put a smile on my face as soon as I received it. I live in a very cold part of the United States and this will help keep me warm. God bless you and your family. I'm happy to hear you are doing well in the KK program and wish you all the best. Thank you again!

Hi there Lamaro! I recently got a beanie (that you made!) from Krochet Kids from a friend of mine. For a week I went on having no idea what the KK on my hat stood for or why there was a name on the inside. Then another friend of mine started talking about how much she loved Krochet Kids and so I got to looking it up on the Internet and found you! This is a pretty cool feeling.

So thank you! Thank you for your hard work. For your craftsmanship. For the love you put into a beanie all the way in Florida, USA. I am praying for you and your family and your future endeavors!

Dear Rose,
My daughter had bought a hat from Krochetkids last year and I liked it so much that she bought me one too. You did a beautiful job on it. It is black with a little gathering where the tag is in the front. The wool is fine and soft and I am very thankful to you for making it. I live in Canada and it is winter here now with temperatures down to way below zero, so I will wear it often and it will keep me warm. Thank you Rose and I wish you all the best and will pray for you and your family.

Lamaro Rose,

Thank you so much for my beautiful hat. It was given to me as a Christmas gift and I have to admit I didn't know the value of it immediately. While I recognized the beauty of the hat, I had no idea the love and story behind it. Thank you for all that you do and for the hope that you have. You have such an inspiring story and I pray you are able to provide for your children all that you dream. I am so honored to wear this hat that you made and will pray for you each time I wear it. What a neat way to share your story with people around the world. Thank you again and I pray God’s blessings upon you and your family!
