Florence
received a $99 initial payment.
"I plan to buy ironsheet and use together with the timber we prepared, and build an iron roofed house. We should used to sell second hand clothes, but used the capital for paying school fees for our two children who joined secondary school. We therefore plan to use the transfer to restart the business so that we may have a source of income."
