Chelangat
received a $22 initial payment.
"I expect my life to be better than I have now. In six months, we will be having food from our farm, so lack of food will be minimal. I also expect my children to continue learning without the interruptions of being sent home for lack of fee. If they get a good education they will have a brighter future. That will be my happiness as a parent."
