Salima received a $443 initial payment.
"Rain is a God-given blessing, but due to the state of our house, this was not the case for us. Several times during the rainy season, we were forced to relocate from our home to our neighbourhood in order to find shelter. This was humiliating, but we had no choice. As a result, when I received my transfer, I used $500 to construct a decent home for my family. This was previously not possible due to our school fee obligations. My wife and I both work at the mine, and we have seven children. Second, I spent the remaining funds on food. I am grateful for the help that has brought about so many changes in our lives that seemed impossible before."
