What does receiving this money mean to you?
I am very happy to receive this money. This money will help me solve some of my problems such as lack of food and school fees for my children.
What is the happiest part of your day?
I am happiest when I have sold aome tomatoes and I have money. This makes me happy because I know that I will buy food and my children will be happy.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship is lack of food. As you can see I sell tomatoes so that I can earn money for food but sometimes people do not need to buy from me. This means that I do not have money to buy food for my children.
