What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
We are planning to buy cement, sand, iron roofing sheets, nails, round poles and timber which we will use to build a better house for our family. The remaining transfers will be used to buy a dairy cow which will provide us with milk for our own consumption.

My proudest achievement is having worked in my farm for many years and managed to buy a ploughing machine, some cows and built my house with funds I got after selling maize and sweet potatoes that I harvested.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I face right now is lack of a sustainable source of income for myself, this means that my family often lacks basic needs like three nutritious meals a day.

The happiest part of my day is in the morning when I wake up. I am usually very happy because I can thank the Lord for blessing me and my family with good health.
