Susan
received a $484 third payment.
"I used a portion of my third transfer on 13 pieces of iron sheets, timber and nails which I have used to build a new house because I had a very small house which was very uncomfortable, I bought a cow for milking because I did not have livestock in my compound. I spent a portion to pay laborers who were building my house and the remaining amount, I spent to pay school fees for my child who is in high school and also to buy whatever I lacked."

"The biggest hardship i am faced with is lack of money.
I am a nursary school teacher which does not really earn me what is enough to sustain life.
As a result, some times my husband has had to borrow money from savings groups, hiring out land to raise some money for school fees. "
