What does receiving this money mean to you?
My family are so thankful to be receiving this money because it will ease alot of our problems. I have a thatched roof which is covered in plastic and during the rainy season we experience alot of leakages and our personal belongings and house is damaged in the process. I plan on using this money to buy iron sheets and investing in fertilizer so that we can yield alot of maize that we can eat during the course of the year.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the evening when I'm with my family and after a long day of doing business we manage to find a bit of food and we are eating as a family.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I have experienced in my life is not having a proper home to live in. I have a thatched roof which is covered in plastic and during the rainy season we experience alot of leakages and our personal belongings and house is damaged in the process. I plan on using this money to buy iron sheets and investing in fertilizer so that we can yield alot of maize that we can eat during the course of the year.
