What does receiving this money mean to you?
"I am still young. Since I graduated from high school, I haven't been opportune to go back to seek.higher education or do a sustainable business due to insufficient funds. So if I receive the cash transfer, I plan to do a big business that will enable me enter school."
What is the happiest part of your day?
"Over the las months, I had difficulty in watching television. The dry season in Kileapo Kanweaken is normally when lots of family leave their home to go for farming and their children stay at home. My spouse was able to purchase a 8inch DVD player of 2021 November, this brought joy and happiness in my life.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
"My primary challenge is to get money to further my education and maintain myself. I am employed, but the little earn can not sustained me or neither put me into school. Due to this reason, I am unable to seek higher education."
