"The biggest difference in my daily life is that we can now plan and execute my goals since I have means of achieving them and this has really earned me a lot of respect in the community-I say and act on my goals-I am a woman of action. Before then I could plan and fail to implement since I never had means of achieving them."

"The biggest hardship I have faced in my life is lack of school fees.
Sometimes I had to leave school, get a loan of like 10,000, buy sugar cane and sell in order to get some money to cater for school fees.
I even ended up dropping out of school because I could not help."
