Nankwanga
received a $448 second payment.
"I never had clothes to change after even bathing but I bought some clothes and am now able to change at least two times everyday. My house was only made of mud but I was able to blaster it all including the floor, no more dust in my house. I now have light at my home because of the solar kit that I bought. I never had any chairs at my home but now my guests come and are able to sit comfortably on the plastic chairs that I bought."
