Akello Joska
Although Joska was unable to complete her studies due to a pregnancy, she later enrolled in a vocational school where she learned the skills of tailoring. She worked as a tailor to support her two children, but the income was unpredictable so she sought out the KKU program. Now working as a KKU tailor, she is confidant that she will receive her weekly income and she has also been able to buy a plot of land and turkeys so that she can become more financially stable.
DREAM FOR THE FUTURE
“I plan to start a business selling fish and building a house in a plot of land that I have bought.”
FAVORITE HOBBIES
“During my free time, I like working in my garden and making clothes to sell.”
LOVE DEFINED
“It is doing good things to others without being selfish.”

I absolutely LOVE the crocheted hat.
I will think of you each time I wear it. I live in California but was born in South Africa.

Thank you for making such an awesome hat, Joska. My sister bought it for me and gave it to me yesterday for Christmas. It opened my eyes to this project and I can’t wait to give my next gift. Good luck with your new business and God bless you and your family.
Thank you for the wonderful hat!!! I live in San Francisco and it will keep me very warm. I will share it with my sister. How many fantastic hats do you make a day? When did you start this hat company?
Thank you Joska for the wonderful hat! I received the hat as a gift recently and it was a welcome one. I live in Central Oregon, U.S.A. near the mountains. It is keeping my head warm in the -4 to 0 C weather. People like yourself really inspire me and to have something hand made from you is very special!
Keep up the hard work and best wishes on all your endeavors!
Thank you so much for the beautiful and warm infinity scarf. I can tell it was skillfully made. I received it as a gift this Christmas and cannot wait to wear it for the rest of the winter! Good luck, Joska!
Thank you Joska, for my beautifully made hat. I look forward to wearing it, and sharing your story. I purchased my hat through a campaign that also helped a child with special needs. Fitting true to the way you have defined love, your love and hard-work allowed for a young child’s life to be changed in the process. No dream is too small, God has great things planned for you! I wish you the best, and pray good things come your way.
