"The biggest difference in my daily life is the house that I built using part of my first transfer. We had lived an uncomfortable life with my young family since we had a small grass thatched house that could not even accommodate a bed. The biggest hardship and desperacy of my small house were going around my neighborhood to ask for someone house to welcome my visitors whenever I had. I had always felt ashamed and lost my self-esteem due to this in society. I depend on hardly found low paying casual jobs leaving my family to heavily depend on my husband tailoring business which can only afford the household daily expenditure. I spend KES25000 of first transfer to build an iron-roofed, two-roomed house that has given we currently have pride as a family. I am so happy that I can currently live in a better place, can acquire more household items since my house can accommodate as well as welcoming anyone in my home unlike before."
