Recieving this money will help me to buy food for my family. I will buy six bags of maize which will cost me $72. The six bags of maize will sustain my family of three for eight months until the next harvest season.
What is the happiest part of your day?
In the month of July, I was happy because I attended my Uncle's wedding. At the wedding there were different types of food to eat which made me happy.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The challenge that I am currently facing is shortage of food. I only managed to buy one bag of fertilizer to apply on my half acre farm during the last planting season. This affected the farm yield because I was only able to harvest three bags of maize which catered for two meals a day from May to August.
