"I believe illiteracy is the mother of all problems and I do not want my children to suffer later in life. My biggest ambition is to see them through formal education and change the story of their lives. This will give them the power to compete for job opportunities and be able to provide for themselves as well as care for me at my old age. Receiving this money therefore means purchasing goats for rearing to finance their education. These animals thrive well in this area because they are drought resistance."
