"The biggest difference in my daily life is that my family now lives in a more presentable house. This would not have been possible had it not have been for GD. With my paltry income from subsistence farming and casual jobs, meeting all the family needs has been challenging for me. Both daily household and children's education needs are my priority thus, I spend much of income on leaving me with none to improve our home. I am now glad since I can concentrate on other income-generating activities whenever I get money because I am done with my home improvement. I spent part of my transfer on household items and the furniture in my house is the biggest difference in my daily life. I a proud owner of my home, I can seat comfortably and even have the pleasure of letting any visitor into my house unlike before."
