Rael
received a $482 second payment.
"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I now own a water tank which helps in collecting rainy water and since water has always been a problem in my area because this area is almost a semi-arid area. I do not have to hustle for water from stream to stream any more since am sure that my family will always have enough water us as long as it rains. The time I used to waste looking for water I can then spend doing other constructive activities."

received a $482 second payment.
"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I will soon own a home which I never thought I would one day have because I have no one to look up to after my husband passed on. Currently I live in a tiny house in my brothers in-law's compound. I am so excited knowing that I will soon be in my own compound where I will be able to make important decisions such as when to cultivate without fear or waiting for someone else to make the first move."
