"I am a person who engages in subsistence farming together with my husband. Over the years, I have always had challenges to produce more food which will last until the other farming season. This is so as despite having a huge land,we usually lack enough to cultivate more land, adequate fertilizer, rear some livestock along other needs. Hence this money will help us acquire some extra labour and inputs which will help us to harvest more in the next farming season. This house too needs some renovation to fix the floor, windows and paint it to look beautiful again. I am very positive this money will change our family for the better."

"Growing up in a poor remote area like this comes with many challenges when you are also poor. As a man, I am obliged to provide for my family and I always seem to be failing when it comes to the resources I have. Hence,our biggest challenge is just lack of opportunities to be making some extra income for other equally important needs such as soap,clothes and fees for the kids in school."

"Our biggest hardship is lack of extra capital for our business. It is a good business but since we also heavily depend on it, we fail to expand it."

"Building a better house for my grandchild is what receiving this money means to, the house that i live in now is not so strong and i fear one day it mighy fell down and my grandchild will have no home"

"Look at my house is not yet finished so this money will mean alot to us as we will be able to finish up my house and other basic needs we will be able to meet them"

"No good place to sleep whenever is night I am worried where I will rest because is bad place we sleep on a sack without blankets so you can imagine"

"It will mean alot to us since we have been worried to where we can find money to finish up our house so this money will help us alot in meeting our needs that we have been failing to meet for so long"

"I am thankful for the money this is a support to help myself put ironsheets on my roof"

"I struggle to find food and a descent place for me to sleep"

"I am the happiest when I have food and money in my home"
