Betty
received a $466 initial payment.
"The biggest differebce in my life is that i am able to plough my gardens in time because i have my own seeds,my own oxen for plaughing and my garden that i hired,previoysly i did not have any of this and i used to go begging from those who had and this would make me not to plough in time.
I bought my bicycle and movement from one place to the other is now easy,I used to walk long distances and movement was so hard."
