"The biggest hardship I am facing is educating my children in that since they are quiet many, I can not pay school fees for all of them at once.In most cases I can be able to pay for a few and at the same time, others are sent from school due to non- clearance of school fees.This has given me alot of pressure that somtimes life becomes really very hard to manage."

That will motivate me to work hard in order to generate more income that will enable me to marry as well as take care of setting up a new business that will generate side income to support my household in buying land, feeding and paying medical bills.

"The biggest hardship that I am faced with is lack of land for cultivation. I can not cultivate in order to get food to feed the family.
I do casual labour which is very unreliable to provide for my household. Sometimes I am able to earn five thousand shillings in a day, sometimes ten thousand and in other days nothing. I just work for family survival but I can not save anything.
I have never been able to buy land because I don't have the resources and yet there is need."

"The biggest hardship I face is poverty. I lost my father at my tender age and started moving up and down as a casual labourer. This has never allowed me to settle since I earn what is not enough for the family's survival."
