Emily
received a $352 initial payment.
"I spent the money by buying iron sheets, cement and other materials for building a house. I have always desired a good house and this money has enabled me to fulfil that. Some of the money went towards buying maize and also fertlizer as we are currently in the farming season. Furthermore, my house didn't have adequate household items so i purchased some too."
