Happy Thanksgiving, to our American Vigilantes and happy Thursday to our other Vigilantes around the world. As our first year as an official non-profit comes to a close and as we prepare for more adventures in Vigilante Kindness in 2016, I wanted to take a moment to say thanks for partnering with Vigilante Kindness in this work we love to do.

Whether you volunteered your time and talents, hosted a fundraiser, donated to one of our projects, purchased paintings or art supplies for our artists, purchased paper bead jewelry from our artisans in Bungatira, prayed for us, used your grocery shopping or AmazonSmile shopping to support us, donated your recyclables, or simply followed along on our journey, I’m overcome with gratitude for you.

What began as giving shoes and mattresses to kids in need and buying a sackful of pigs became a way for students and their families to earn sustainable incomes to pay for basic needs like food, medicine, and education.

Who would’ve thought this adventure would unfold before us in such wild and wonderful ways? For sure not me, but that’s just like God to take my meager yes and run with it. And it’s just like God to give me wild at heart, desperate to serve, breaking the mold kind of Vigilantes like you to keep me company.

Words fail to express how much love and appreciation I have for you. Apwoyo matek! (Thank you so much!)

Fondly,

Alicia
