The money will change my life. I had always want to finish my house but I haven't been able to do that because I depend on farming and last year the rains didn't favour us and I had less harvest . After selling my produce I earned MK 50000 and used it to buy basic needs for my family. I had no chance to save money to finish my house. With this money I will be able to apply cement in my house and also plaster it.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my life the past 6 months was in August when I sold 2 goats. I sold the goats at MK 20000 each, I had earned MK 40000 after selling the goats. I was happy because the money that I earned I used it to buy clothes for my family and also bought food for the family. Here in the village it's not easy to earn such money so this made me happy.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The challenge that I am facing now is lack of money to provide for the family. I am a farmer and the money that I earn is not enough,I have 5 children to look after which is not simple to buy food for and clothes them.
