""My main occupation is bricks making, out of that, i have managed to pay school fees for my brother who is in secondary school and in form three this year. I treat that as the achievement i am proudest of because paying school fees with my little income is a sacrifice.""

""The biggest hardship i have faced in my life is acquiring basic income. The work i do is periodical, and sometime it is not available at all, at that time, there will be no resources to sustain the family and that is the biggest challenge.""

"My life is currently different because i was able to pay labourers to cultivate my farm and buy food to feed my family."

"The biggest hardship that I face right now is lack of a sustainable source of income. I am a peasant farmer and the proceeds from the sale of my crops is not always able to cater for my families needs, this often means that at times we often lack basic necessities like nutritious meals."

"The moment i recieved my money, i felt so happy, because i knew it's going to solve my financial problems. "

"The biggest hardship I have faced in life was Sudan civil war. In 2014, civil war broke in South Sudan where I was working as a mason. People were butchered, tortured and manhandled. I narrowly escaped through a friend who sneaked me back to Kenya. It was a hard and hostile place to be in."

"The achievement I am proudest of is building my permanent house. Previously, I was staying in a grass thatched house but now, I am in a big, spacious and decent house where I am secure. It is one of the best houses in the village and it makes me proud."

"The achievement I am proudest of is educating my two daughters. I became a widow while still young and meeting family needs was a tough struggle. From peasant faming and sisal weaving, I managed to pay their school fees. They are currently employed and earn a living from their educational struggle. I am very proud of that."

"The achievement I am proudest of would be successfully completing my ECD certificate course. From my little wages, I managed to pay my school fees, meet family needs and now have attained my certificate in Early Childhood Education. I am glad that one time I will secure formal employment of my profession."

"I want to start a rearing business. I want to buy goats and sheep at a tender age and sell them after they have matured. This will help me earn a living."
