"I wake up around 8:00am go to a near by hotel take tea. I then go to Oil Libya Gas Station to hire a handcart for carrying garbage. I head straight to the households that I collect garbage, I start working and after 3 hours of collecting and transportating the garbage to a collection point I stop working. After work I go back home take shower then I relax. Later on I take lunch watch movies and then in the evening I take dinner then sleep. On my free time I play soccer with my friends."

"The biggest hardship I have faced is lack of financial resources to feed and educate my children as well as seek medication for myself.After the demise of my wife five years ago,I have been the sole breadwinner.When she was alive,we would share the responsibilities.The fact that I have a medical condition that requires surgery makes it more difficult for me to engage in any meaningful economic activities that would generate enough money for food,school fees and medication."

"Receiving this money means I will have an opportunity to get back to school.

"The biggest hardship that I am faced with is sickness.
I have a child who has been passing out blood in urine for close to two years now.
Whatever little harvest I get is sold in order to get money to take care of medical bills and transport costs."
