What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
My biggest hardship is being a single mother and having to take care of the needs of four children,this is a hustle because i don't do anything for a living all i relay on are casual labour's which are also seasonal.I have been living in a glass fatched house since birth and i really wish someday things to be a bit different,we gave up on fighting poverty because we were never given an opportunity to fight it at all but Givedirectly has given us another hope so thank you so much.
