Judith
received a $481 second payment.
"I had a one room house with six children plus us (my spouse and I) staying in it. We used to find it hard staying in such a squeezed house but now I have a three room house. This is enough to fit my family and I can now buy households because I have enough space to store them. This is the biggest difference in my daily life."
