Dorothy
received a $98 initial payment.
" I never had a comfortable place to lay my back and therefore when I received my first transfer, I acquired a high density mattress and a blanket. I invested the remaining amount in grocery, selling kales, onions and tomatoes. I am happy that the business has been supportive to us since we ventured into it. We have been able to feed well."
