Norah
received a $22 twelfth payment.
"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I will have completed building a house for visitors. I'm also planning on buying a dairy cow to cut the cost of buying milk. I will also be earning a daily income from the sales of milk to meet additional needs for the family and to pay school fees for my uncle in secondary school because his parent is not able to raise his school fees."

"This is a drought prone area, being fully dependant on farming and livestock keeping, this is our biggest hardship. My husband takes care of the livestock and am left in the farm and my small shop. We sometimes find it hard to pay school fees for our children. Rendering to them missing out on school sometimes."

"My life will improve horrendously, my ambition is to start my own tailoring shop, I have the skills to match it but resources have been a problem. Apart from starting the tailoring business my husband and I have been wanting to buy oxen to help us in farming
Getting my transfer will help realise that dream of being a tailor. I will buy a sewing machine and start a dress making business. My family and I will also invest in farming tools for the next season hence a fruitful harvest."

"The biggest hardship I have faced in life is food insecurity.Without enough food for the family,there is no any other meaningful thing one can accomplish.I have been struggling to feed my family in vain because I depend on traditional farming methods that coupled with infertile lands and harsh climatic conditions,only results to very low yields.This has made my children go hungry and drop out of school."
