Learn more about how recipients opt in to share their stories.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
My house leaks during the rainy season. Since we are nearing the rainy season my worries are on my children. Another challenge is that I can not afford to buy clothes for my children since I am single parent supporting the whole household on my own.
What is the happiest part of your day?
Three months ago my daughter went through Chinamwali innitiation. We celebrated with duck meat, rice and cabbage. We also sang and danced, so this was one of our happiest moments in these past few months.
What does receiving this money mean to you?
I would be happy to receive this money because I would use the money to build another house. I have always wanted a brick house with iron sheets. After building the house if any money is left I would use it to buy mattress. I have a bed without mattress so it is very uncomfortable sleeping on such a place.
