"The biggest hardship I have faced is poor health of my children. They often fall sick and in most cases I can't afford better treatment for them since I don't have enough money to meet the medical bills."

"The biggest hardship I face is lack of enough money for paying my children's fees. My children are studying in a private school which require instant fees payment, so since some times I run short of money they are sent home. This is affecting their academic progress. "

"The biggest hardship I face in my lid is inadequate land for crop cultivation. Farming is the only source of livelihood in my household. It's what supports me pay school fees for my children, pay medical bills and feeding my household. What we produce is sold and part of it is retained for household consumption. What is there currently is not able to support my household adequately."

"Receiving this money means building a better iron roofed house that is specious enough to accommodate me and my children. The house we sleep now has a leaky roof due to holes made by rats on it. There is a lot of inconvinience in renovating and when it rains at night hence causing discomfort during sleeping hours."

"The biggest hardship I face is food shortages. I was left as a widow with only a plot to stay, so I really donot have where to cultivate. This means that I rely on causal labour which does fetch enough to sustain my household needs."
