I have not yet spent my first transfer, I am saving it as I wait for the next transfer to enable me complete my planned house -roofing Project once and for all.
Describe the moment when you received your money. How did you feel?
The moment I received my money I was over-excited and jumped up and down since I would carry out a house roofing Project that had stalled due to low finances; It happens there were so many rumors in the village that confused me . Thanks a lot for the money.

What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
Our biggest hardship is on the condition of our current house which is small and Squeezed for our big family.
What is the happiest part of your day?
My happiest part of the day is in the morning. I'm a casual labourer at our local beach helping fishermen to dry their fishes in the sun for some small payment which help me support my family.
What does receiving this money mean to you?
Receiving this money means much to us,currently we stay in a thatched house with another house next to it which stalled due to lack of money. We will be able to finally complete the house and move out of our current thatched one which leaks much during rainy seasons.
