"The biggest hardship that we face is lack of food. This is because we are not financially stable so as to afford buying food enough for our family everyday. It is quite challenging to depend on the little money my husband makes from his work."

"The biggest hardship that we face is hunger. This is due to the fact that we lack cattle for ploughing our farm,we lack farming tools and equipments, also unfavourable weather conditions that lead to poor farm produce and to add on that I as the recipient does not have a stable source of income instead we all depend on what my spouse earns which is not enough to carter for all our needs."
