Andrew
received a $465 third payment.
"My life is different because I bought more stock for my retail kiosk, and from which profit I have managed to meet the needs of my family more easily (including food and children’s education). I also managed to construct a kitchen much sooner than I would have done had it not been for the transfers. Thank you."

"Being able to send my children to school with fully paid school fees is the biggest difference in my life. My children's education was on and off because they were always being sent home for school fees however that changed with the availability of transfers."

Peres
received a $483 second payment.
"I got my second transfer when I hardly had even a cow in my compound and therefore I bought a cow with half of it then enrolled my 2 children in a college. I am glad that they are no longer staying at home while others are learning. I also anticipate that the cow will procreate and and increase my wealth stock to make education of my children sustainable."
