"The biggest difference in my daily life is that today I live in a dust free house after plastering my entire house with the transfers. This has made my house cleaning and maintenance work easier since I do not have to repair my house monthly with mud. It has also improved my family health since infections such flu has reduced and insects such as fleas and jiggers no longer find a breeding ground in my house. Having steel door has made me feel more secure especially at night and not worried over thieves breaking into my house at night"

"The biggest difference in my daily life is living on my own land makes me so peaceful. Initially we used to live on someone else's land and there was no peace since he was giving us pressure to move away from his land."

received a $482 second payment.
"The biggest difference in my daily life is that today I live in a better, more spacious and presentable house. Living in a more spacious house motivates me to work harder to get more household items to fill the spaces in my house. Today, my house can accommodate many guests unlike before when I had to take my guests to my brother-in-law's house to sleep because I lacked enough space."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is having a bigger house which fits my family. Previously I was staying in a single room house the size of a latrine that couldn't even contain a chair. Everyone int he village is surprised because no one believed I could own such a house. Funnily enough everyone in the village has now copied my building style."
