What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I have faced in my life is lack of money to pay rent. Sometimes the landlady kicks us out of the house when I am unable to pay for the rent on time.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning when I escort my children to school.
What does receiving this money mean to you?
Receiving this money means happiness and much change to my life. I would like to built my own home where I do not pay rent and use the remaining portion to start small scale business.
