What does receiving this money mean to you?
This money means a lot to me. I will be able to build a house because of this project. My house is thatched with grass so I will buy iron sheets to make a durable roof of the house I will build. On top of that, I will buy some household items like a mattress which I don't have at the moment.
What is the happiest part of your day?
I am happiest whenever I find money from the small business I have.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I face is not having enough food for me and my kids. I have a farm but I don't harvest enough maize because finding fertilizer to apply to my crops is also a challenge.
