"Firstly, we plan to use part of the transfer to buy a water pump and pipes, that we intend to use to irrigate our farm, where we plan to grow tomatoes. Secondly, we intend to use another part to pay school fees for our child, whom we expect to join secondary school next year. Lastly, we plan to use the remaining amount to start a small shop for sustainability. "
