Hellen
received a $97 initial payment.
"Ha ha ha ha ha, the moment when I received my money I felt God had shone His light upon us in a special way as a family, and it was joy indescribable!!. It happens that my family had no food at the time, our child was to join Secondary school for the first time but we could not raise the money for her Feeding Program and for this reason only she was still at home with us and last, we needed money as we were getting late for land preparation and planting but we could not get any yet and so we felt stranded. We thank GD for the blessing that lifted us up."
