What does receiving this money mean to you?
This means a lot to me. I and my husband have been desiring to start a business. This is our opportunity to start. After receiving our transfer, we will start selling second hand clothes. We will also use the money to build a house. The house we are living in is very small. We will also buy kitchen utensils.
What is the happiest part of your day?
We are always happy when we have enough food or when we've been paid for the piece work that we have done.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
We don't have a stable income generating activity. We depend on casual labor which makes it very difficult to make both ends meet.
