"My first plan when I receive this money is building a house for my children. We are so much squeezed in the current one. I have seven children and the one bedroom we have is not enough. The house will cost approximately 200 USD. We have never heard the privilege of sleeping in a bed. This money will provide me with that opportunity. I will buy 2 beds. One for me and the other for my children."

"My biggest hardship is low income that cannot sustain all the family's needs. I am jobless and I spend most of the time at home doing house chores. I fully depend on my husband who is a casual labourer. What he gets is only enough to buy food for our six children. The rest of the needs like school fees,clothing and good shelter have been a major challenge."

"I used to work in a security firm since 2016. Recently after the outbreak of Covid-19, I was retrenched without pay and since then, together with my colleagues we have been moving in and out of the court for us to get justice and be paid. Now with this tough economic times, providing the basic needs to my family is the biggest hardship I have ever experienced."
