What does receiving this money mean to you?
Receiving this money is a blessing to me and my family because it help to ease some of the challenges we face. We struggle to find food because we always have little harvest. I spend most my time at the lake fishing so that i can sell and buy food for my family but it is not easy to catch fish these days.
What is the happiest part of your day?
I am the happiest in the morning because i feel favoured to wake up alive and see another day. I know that not everyone has the opportunity to wake up alive and see another day and for this reason i am happy
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
Lack of food has been the main challenge for me and my family because we do not harvest much. The main reason for this is because we do not apply fertilizer in our gardens as I can not afford to buy fertilizer. Fertilizer is very expensive and you need to have more money to buy even a single bag
