Describe the biggest difference in your daily life.
I feel so relieved from the time I received this money, even the sickness that used to disturb me a lot has slowed down as compared to the past. I can eat and get satisfied since I know my burden has been reduced. I addition to that, I'm so happy because I have already acquired building materials awaiting construction. Finally, I managed to get back my land after paying of the debt as I previously used it as collateral security.

What did you spend your first transfer on?
I spent my transfer on purchasing building materials like bricks and iron sheets, I reclaimed my land that was used as security and the remaining money will kick start house construction.

What does receiving this money mean to you?
Receiving this money means I will be able to construct an iron roof house. The house I am using right now is thatched yet we have run short of thatching grass. Part of the money I intend to pay the debt of 900000ugx that got for treatment.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning when I wakeup when I am very okey without any part of my body paining, I get very happy.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I have faced is that of sickness. I was diagonised with Cancer of the Uterus where I spent a lot of money on treatment, it even made me get debts from people that I am struggling to pay now.
