I hawk clothes in Mathare during the day, and sell porridge in the evening in the same area. I have depended on this business for about four years now. My husband is a casual laborer who depends mostly on construction jobs. These jobs can be hard to come-by and he has not had work for a while now. Currently, we rely on my businesses. I paid school fees because we struggle a bit to pay school fees. I also invested part of the transfers in my business because we depend mostly on these businesses for our livelihood. I have seen the businesses do well since I added stock with the transfers that I received."
