Stella
received a $471 initial payment.
"Acquiring a motorcycle is the biggest difference in my daily life. This is because it is now easy to earn a living as it can help bring in food, have money at hand and use it when need arises and then ease transport. Before when I had no motorcycle, feeding was really difficult. My family and I would even go without food as we had no where to turn to get money."

Joseph
received a $453 second payment.
"My life has changed in that I am happier because I am constructing an extension of my house such that my children will have a comfortable accommodation too. Previously, my children have been sleeping in a grass thatched house that had been giving me the burden of walking for long distances to look for grass in order to renovate it frequently."

Farida
received a $471 initial payment.
"When I recieved my money, I felt extremely happy that I could not sleep at that moment. The happiness is because I knew that my children at this time would not stay home for long as before, I looked for money to send them back to school. Instead this time, they would be going to school early and with full requirements."
