"I have survived the genocide only to be a refugee in the Congo, but I always wanted to return to Rwanda to raise my children. Now we live in a terrible house with a leaking roof and sleep on the dirt floor."
"I am an old man (42 years old) and HIV+, making it harder for me to do manual labor all day. I go to sleep sad knowing I can't provide for my family and worry how I will feed my children."
"I can't believe people in America would care about how we live. I feel like my family now has the chance of surviving, and my children will have a better life.”
"For the first time in my life, I'm saving money because I don't have to fix an old house. Now money I earn buys food and clothes for my family. I even bought pigs and built this pig pen as an investment".
