I used my transfer to make an initial payment for a piece of land (50000)
Describe the biggest difference in your daily life.
I lost both parents and there have been land wrangles which led me to stay in a rental house with my family. Support from GD has enabled me to secure my own piece of land where my family can live peacefully, we have a letter from the chief that says after the final payment of 45000 is made, it shall be my family's property. I am happy for the support from GD.
