We check in with people at each stage of the cash transfer process to see how things are going. Take a look at some of their stories as they appear here in real-time.
Learn more about how recipients opt in to share their stories.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
Being this old, we fail to go out to work as well as we could when we were younger and end up staying hungry. This is because we don't yield anything from what we farm. We live off hand to mouth basis handouts pressure on us. We lack money and can't afford our basic needs hence living in poverty.
What is the happiest part of your day?
What makes us happy is eating. When we have food is the house we are happy than when there isn't because we get stressed and worry.
What do you plan to do with the cash transfer?
When we receive this money i will use it to buy food and improve my house. I want my house to be presentable and I have a good sleeping place. Living in a good house will lessen my stress because I will no longer fear rains since my house will be in condition. I will also buy livestock to sell when I need something in future.
