Iam planning to use KES 50,000 of my cash transfer to buy piece of land on higher grounds because iam tired running up and down during raining season due to floods. I have my 2 children who are at secondary school, am planning to clear their school fees because that is the challenge am facing right now. I will use remaining amount of money to buy food, and clothing for my family and stock my business and also to cultivate my 2 acre piece of land.
What is the happiest part of your day?
Am great full because am still pushing on on my small business which is still operational for the last 10 years despite ups and down on the economy.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
I have school going children one in junior secondary and 2 in Senior secondary school and paying their school fee is the biggest challenge am facing because I rely on charcoal burning and a small business which earns me about KES 300 per day which is not enough to cater for their food clothes and school fees.i have 2 acre piece of land which I cultivated early this year hoping that it will help me clear school fees arears for my children unfortunately the floods cleared all the plants leaving my land bare.
