I'm proud with this Give Directly program because this money will enable me to complete building and fixing my house, i did not even have a proper sleeping place so i will buy a bed and a mattress. Finally, this money will also help me buy food for my family.
What is the happiest part of your day?
I sale tomatoes at the local market close by, so when i sold my tomatoes i made a profit of about 30,000 kwacha. We were happy and this was good to my family.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
At times i find it hard to buy relish and food such as maize is also difficult to have because during rainy season when it over rains, the maize plants either gets stuck in the mud or are washed away by running water. Another challenge i face is finding it difficult to buy soap for both washing and bathing.
