"When I receive my recent transfer, I used portion of it to pay for my children's tuitions and their uniforms. I also bought a pair of goats to raise for business to earn more money in the future. Some of the other portion was used on mattress because we have been sleeping on a very flat mattress. The remaining portion of it, I used it to buy cement to plaster my house to have a decent future home to stay with my family."

"My wife and I are with many children. There have been lot of struggle in supporting the children because of poverty. I have tried my possible best to school my children but there ìs no way. I have also been planning to build a new house for me and my family because the house that we are living in is very small and it can not accommodate me and my family. I am so much happy for this money because it has help me so greatly. I use the first transfer of it to buy zinc, I am sawing planks now to start my house project. With the transfer, I was also able to send my children back to school for a better future."
