What does receiving this money mean to you?
We have a very small house to call home. We also have tattered clothes for our children. This money would bring a huge difference in our lives. We have a lot of things that we have always aspired to accomplish but have never done so due to lack of funds.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the evening when am done with all the days work and I have time to relax with my family members.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I have ever faced is hunger. We hardly had anything to depend on in our household and life was really hard. We have young children who require regular supply of food and this makes it hard for us.
