When I receive this money, I am going to buy food and livestock. I want to own cows for milk business. I have always wanted that but never had the money to start the business with. This money will help me realize that dream of mine.
What is the happiest part of your day?
What makes me happy is eating with my family. Knowing my children will not be hungry satisfies my heart.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The backbone of all our problems is money. We don't have money for food and clothes. There is only one company here in the village where we can get employment opportunities. Because of that, we are supposed to pay a bribe of $30 to get work and yet they pay $2 a day so how does one raise the bribe money. Had I been educated, i would have been employed somewhere and receiving monthly income. My life would have been better off.
