What do you plan to do with the cash transfer?
I used to have a small business in my compound and due to financial challenges I had to shot it down, iam planning to use KES 30,000 of my cash transfers to revive it back to normal. I am also planning to use KES 30,000 to pay school fees for my school going children. I will use the remaining amount of money to venture into farming, buy food for my family and buy livestock so that incase of emergency I have an asset to depend on.
What is the happiest part of your day?
I have 2 acre piece of land and I use to plant maize on raining season. I managed to plant maize early this year, and I got amazing yield which enabled me to clear school fees for children who finished their senior secondary school last year. Iam very happy because they have already received their certificates.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
I have school going children, two children are in secondary school and one child is in junior secondary school. Iam struggling to pay their school fees because iam relying on casual labour which earns me KES 300 which is not enough to cater for my family's basic needs.
