They are living from a small amount of money that the Government provides to her every month as a direct support from the Program of VUP (vision Umurenge Program).
Expressing her Family problems, NIYONSABA Jeanne said that they have many problems including deep poverty and not having a home to live in. They are living in a house that can fall on her and her four children, the house lent by her family not his own. However, she indicated that poverty is the problem she shares with some other people, but the big challenge she want first to be advocated is not having a safe home, admitting their lives are in danger from a house that can cost them anytime the heavy rains come.
Visiting her, NUDOR invited local leaders from Kicukiro District and Gahanga Sector where her family lives. Asked why they did nothing to help her to own the house as the Government always does it for other homeless poor families, The Sector Gahanga officer in charge of Social affairs responded that they did not have information about this family and admitted that after knowing this, they are going to start the process of enlisting her to the list of people to be offered homes.

Fortunately NIYONSABA Jeanne’s family accepted their part in providing what requested and wait for the support of District and Partners because themselves have no other capacity than what they accepted.
