During the war, Aryemo Beatrice had to abandon her studies in order to work and support herself. This was a constant struggle as she was always on the run from the LRA. Today, Beatrice earns a consistent income through her work as a beneficiary for KKU and is able to provide herself and her family with food, housing and medical care. She says the work is becoming second nature to her and she is excited to work and support herself each day.

Dream for the Future

Favorite thing about Northern Uganda
“The most beautiful things about Uganda are the fertile land and hospitable people.”

Message to KKi
“Thank you for changing my life. I have gone from having no purpose to having a meaning to my life.”

    Thank you for my hat. My dad bought it from a conference that he went to in America but when he came back to New Zealand he gave it to me because I LOVE BEANIES. It fits perfectly, it is red and it is so soft. I am only twelve. Thank you I hope you are well.

    Oh, wow. I got my Blue Betty hat today, and it is so beautiful. I cannot wait to wear it. Every day when I take my dog for a walk, we anxiously walk to the mailbox and hope for the hat. I was so excited when it came today. I tried it on immediately. It fit wonderfully. Thank you so much for your hard work and your determination in working for a better life.
