Benard
received a $493 second payment.
"I was initially living in a house of 26 iron sheets which was inadequate for my large household members, but when I received transfers and constructed a house of 50 iron sheets, we have been able to live in a healthier environment: no overcrowding and no poor ventilation at all, the biggest difference in my daily life."
