Aggrey
received a $97 initial payment.
"I spent my first transfer on purchasing fishing nets for my daily fishing activities. I previously used other people's nets who demanded a lot of money for the use of those nets, something that I could not cope with well since I also needed money from the same activity to meet my family's daily needs."

Nicholas
received a $97 initial payment.
"I spent my first transfer on purchasing fishing nets for my fishing activities. Previously I had nets which were very old and torn which could easily allow fish escape back into the waters. I am so glad now that my fishing activity is greatly improved and much income is generated at the end of the day which has in turn raised my family's living standards."

Collins
received a $97 initial payment.
"I spent my first transfer on purchasing fishing nets for my fishing activities in the lake. I had very old and torn nets which would occasionally allow fish to escape and swim back to the water resulting into very low returns at the end of the day. I am so glad that I no longer suffer from such losses. Other than that, I also purchased a sack of maize which I felt would be of a very big help to my kids who relied entirely on me for everything they needed."

"The happiest part of my day is always in the evening when am back in the house with my family having come from the lake after fishing. It is always refreshing for me to rejoin them that evening since we are never sure of coming back from the lake alive when we go fishing"
