"My most worries were about my farm production this year, my family have been experiencing hunger for the past years due to lower production caused by lack of inputs.

Lukiya
received a $356 initial payment.
"The different now is that I have afforded to renovate my house which I could not without GD. My house was very old, at times I was worried that one day it will fall down and I might not be able to build another one. Am an old woman with no source of income as I just stay at home doing nothing. This money has helped me to have something I never thought I would be able to afford and am thankful to GD."
