"Not having a constant source of income makes it difficult to provide daily needs for my children. As a single mother, it is very frustrating and stressful when my children survive on a meal per day. This is why I have been trying to do different jobs to try to make ends meet but still, my effort is not enough. Lack of sufficient finances is the challenge that I currently face in life because it is the reason I have not been able to realize my dream."

"The state of my house is worrying me a lot and sometimes gives me sleepless nights. The effort to raise money for repair has not been fruitful because it costs a lot of money which I cannot raise once. My children on the other hand are looking at me to provide for them but my financial status is not good because the business I depend on only gives me 200 KES per day. The biggest challenge that I currently face therefore is lack of money to meet all the responsibilities in the family."
