Janet's family

"Since my mother who was the former recipient passed on, I was changed to be the new recipient. Me and my sister are still in university pursuing different courses, but we couldn't afford to sustain our education due to lack of adequate support from guardians and therefore receiving the third transfer was a great support to us. In fact, it enabled us to pay the whole year college fees for both of us."
