Elizabeth
received a $472 third payment.
"I spent my third transfer on Secondary school fee for our two children for 40,000 KES, and spent the balance on food items for my family. School fee for our children is always our highest expense yet a priority to us , and I figured out that my husband and I were not likely to get lump sum money again and so the best was to secure our children's education."
