It has been comfortable since my children are young but since they are growing, I had foreseen that it will be a must for me to have a bigger house thus I build an extension on it. With the limited resources, I had not been able to complete it. When I received my cash transfer, I used KES35000 to complete it. I am glad that soon I will a bigger house that can comfortably accommodate my growing family comfortably. In addition and as a way of investing my transfer, I took KES20000 to add stock that will enable me to operate my business without any difficulties. This to me is an investment from which I am expecting a good income that will enable me to meet my financial needs. I am now happy that my business is doing better." (Occupation: Small business)
