Krochet Kids is an organization started by a guy who crochets, who taught his friends to crochet and then they all travelled to Uganda and had a brilliant idea!! They taught a few Ugandan women to crochet hats so that they could sell them here in the United States. (Check out the Krochet Kids website- also Nordstrom)!
Their motto became "Buy a hat change a life".
So... a handful of Ugandan women has turned into a hundred plus women in both Uganda and Peru using a fabulous skill to support themselves... I think that's kool.
So please google Krochet Kids and watch the Bing Originals short video... I promise- you will be so encouraged.
(((hugs)))
