How is your life different than it would have been if you never received the transfer?
Through this support, we were able to acquire a new motorbike that does transport business. My family needs like food and medical bills have been met in time because the bike generates daily income. Previously, we didn't have a stable source of income as a young family, feeding and paying medical bills was a challenge to us.
