Esnart
received a $367 second payment.
"With this transfer I have finally been able to fix my house. This is something I could not do before because I am poor and too old to find work. I have been helped by these transfers a great deal. My children were wearing rags but now I can afford to buy them shorts. I was unable to feed my family, which is something I can now do. I am very grateful to GD for changing my life."
