However, when three of her brothers were abducted by the LRA (two killed, one left blind), life became sad and difficult. As a tailor for KK Uganda, Prossy is able to help her family financially and can now send her own children to school.

Dear Lanyero,

For Christmas, my sister-in-law gave me a Helm knit cap that you made. It's beautiful, but not as beautiful as your story and the work you are doing with KKi. Thank you so much for your beautiful cap, Merry Christmas, and may God bless you and your family. I will be praying for your health, safety and well-being.

Blessings,

Jason

Dear Lanyero Prossy,
I received my "the helm" hat yesterday and have not taken it off since. Thank you so much for making such a fine piece of clothing. I had stumbled upon Krochet Kids and knew I had to have this hat. However, I had no idea that I was going to be contributing to such a great cause and getting to show off your great hat making skills to everyone I meet.
I am so happy I can know who made my hat. Best of luck in everything and again, thank you!
Sending love and good vibes to you and your family.

Dear Lanyero Prossy,

thank you for the cool hat you made. I like it very much. I'm glad to read your story here. It saddens me to hear about the hardship economic wars have brought upon your life, and lives of your country men, women and children. I am glad to know that KKi has given you income and hope for the future. Infinite love and blessings to you and your family and a more prosperous future.

Sincerely,
Sabine
