I believe this money will solve most of the problems we have been facing especially lack of food. I want to use the money to buy a few bags of maize which can take us up to the next harvesting period. I will use at least K100 000 just to buy enough food for us. I would like to use the money to buy a motor bike to be using it as a taxi which will provide us with daily cash. I look forward to receiving this money from Give Directly to change my life
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of the must be in the evening for me because that is the time i am home and i relax with my family after spending all day at the lake. I am happy to see my family and also having supper together.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
Lack of food is the biggest challenge i face because i do not have a big garden to farm. I spend most of my time at the lake fishing as a way of making money when we sell. I usually eat once or twice a day but this is not what i would want.
