"Life is full of hardships and one that will remain with me for as long as I live is having to lose my wife. Ever since she died my life has never been the same. My life is full of sorrow, stress and loneliness. I have no one to talk to and I deal with every challenge I encounter single-handedly. The gap that she left in my life is so big that no one will ever fill. I pray that God gives me the strength to come to terms with the loss because without her in my life makes living boring."

"As a peasant farmer who lives and resides on 0.5 acres of land, meeting my family's daily needs has been the biggest hardship. The little yield that we usually get from our farm could hardly sustain us. Besides, I do not have any other source of income. Hence, I feel ashamed and somehow hopeless as a family head who cannot manage to provide adequately as expected."

"Receiving this money means that my family shall manage to purchase a bigger piece of arable land that supports agricultural practices. Currently, we own and live on 0.2 acres of land, hence, cannot practice agriculture due to lack of space. Precisely, my family shall enjoy a higher living standard because we will probably realize more yields and income."
