What does receiving this money mean to you?
"The past years things had been very difficult. My husband became a daily hired at the gold mine just to provide food for the family. Upon receiving this cash transfer, I will make sure I establish a business that will enable me support my family fully. Secondly I will pay all of my children fees so that they can't be put out of school. I'm forever grateful to Givedirelty for this one time life opportunity!"

What is the happiest part of your day?

What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
" Financially we are challenged. Getting our meals is also a major challenge, my husband had to reduced himself to a casual labourer before we eat. Moreover, we hardly pay our children's fees, most time they are put out of school because of fees as a result, for the past two years they didn't complete the school year"
