Even though Sharon grew up without the love of her family members, she was fortunate enough to escape being abducted by the rebel army. With no money, Sharon’s uncle greedily arranged Sharon’s marriage without her consent or knowledge and eventually, she was sent away. Now, Sharon has three children and five dependants which she happily supports with the income she earns through KK Uganda. She now has hope and looks at life positively.

Sharon,
I appreciate your handy work with a Volcom beanie I'd been gifted with this past December 2014, so this thank you is long overdue. It's especially encouraging to hear a small bit of your positive outlook on life despite things of the past in your bio. May your hands continue to not only provide income but also bless others with your talented crocheted goods.
Thank you!
Best regards from Seattle, WA

I am happy this hat was made with love and for a good purpose. I wish you many blessings, and to your family.

Hey you! Thank you kindly for the lovely beanie that I just purchased today. I love beanies and this one is by far my favourite. Once I found out that people's had hand made these products and I discovered your name inside it, I just had to look you up and thank you kindly. The colors are extravagant and the knitting is immaculate. May the lord shine kindly upon you, gracious one. Love Jed.
