Grace
received a $485 second payment.
"The biggest difference in my daily life is seeing my son sleeping in his house so he doesn't have to seek for sleeping space in neighbors houses which was risky and uncomfortable. Being lame it wasn't easy looking for soil and cowdung to repair my house so I'm now relieved of the stress because I resorted to a long term solution by cementing it."
