"My house fell due to heavy rains and now I am seeking seeking shelter in my daughter's small house. I did not know as to what I will do to rebuild it and now that GD has come to my rescue I am praising God for this timely assistance."

Kahunda
received a $485 second payment.
"My life is currently different from how it would have been had I not received the money in that if it was not for the money I would not be having a cow. I am hopeful that in the future after it has given birth I will have more cows. Aside from that it is a great source of income both from milk and, I can sell the the ones in future whenever in urgent need of money."

"My biggest hardship has been paying for medical care for my two children who have health problems. One has an epilepsy problem and the other has a recurrent insufficient blood problem which requires transfusion or admission frequently. Since the hospitals which provide better medical care are private clinics, I just try the best I can to take care of them at home."
