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.”

    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 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.
