"We bought a piece of land and started staying here more than ten years back, funnily enough my husband left three days latter after we had started constructing a new house and took over 10 years outside without any communication we even thought he died! I managed to make my home to look organized and no one thought that a woman would bring up children and a home in such a nice way like I did. I'm proud I own a home!" (Occupation: Small business)

"I did not have a good house before.It was too small that you could only enter while bending but I now have a better house that I managed to build with the money I saved from a small business I used to do.This is my proudest achievement because it is a step I made amidst struggles."

"My biggest hardship is lack of proper source of income to be able to fend for all the needs of my family." (Occupation: Small business)

"I plan to spend this transfer to start a tailoring business that I used to do before . Part of the money I will use to trade in selling clothes.These are activities for generating income and can help me fend for my children's basic needs."

"I plan to use part of the transfers to establish my own home outside my parents' compound as an obligation of our tradition. Part of it I will use to revive shoe business I used to run but which stalled due to lack of capital. If am left with some amounts I will spend them towards my children's education. "
