Ruth
enrolled.
"Receiving this money means that I can finally build my family a larger iron roofed house which will include a bedroom for my children as we currently share one room which is uncomfortable. I will also be able to start a small business where I will sell common household items like sugar,salt,bread,cooking fat,bread,soap and beans. This will enable me to have a sustainable source of income instead of relying on my spouse for everything that needs to be provided in the house."

"The biggest hardship that I currently face is lack of a sustainable source of income. I am just a casual worker and the jobs I get do not offer good wages, this means that my family often lacks basic items like nutritious food."
