"With the acquisition of the sheep, I am filled with hope for their multiplication in the future. My ultimate aim is to sell them to provide financial support for my children, particularly when it comes to their school fees. Additionally, I aspire to expand my business using both the proceeds from the sheep and additional transfers. My fervent wish is for this expansion to yield fruitful results, enabling me to better support my family's daily needs. These aspirations are driven by a deep-seated desire to ensure the well-being and success of my loved ones, fueling my determination to strive for a brighter future."

"My foremost goal is to provide my children with a quality education. In addition to this, I've invested in livestock—a cow and chickens—using previous transfers. The cow has already birthed a young one, adding to the family's assets. My intention is to nurture these animals, allowing them to flourish over time. This isn't just about raising animals; it's about creating a legacy that my children can inherit and be proud of. As they grow, they'll witness firsthand the fruits of their father's hard work and dedication, instilling in them values of perseverance and stewardship."

"I'm thrilled to see my house coming together, with only the roofing left to complete. Currently, I require 22 iron sheets, but I already have 14 pieces on hand. Alongside my housing project, I'm eager to delve into livestock investment, particularly in goats. My vision is to breed them, allowing their numbers to multiply and eventually trade them for a cow. This cow will serve a dual purpose: aiding in agricultural work by plowing fields for others and generating additional income for my family. It's a plan fueled by optimism and a desire to secure a brighter future, both in terms of shelter and financial stability."

"The transfers presents a golden opportunity to fuel the growth of my chicken business, paving the way for increased returns that will bolster my family's well-being. Injecting these funds into the business fills me with optimism, knowing that each investment propels us closer to our goals which is to be able to support my children education and household items. As the business thrives and expands, so does my ability to provide for my loved ones. It's not just about financial gain; it's about building a legacy of support and security for my family, a mission that drives me forward with unwavering determination."

"I remain steadfast in my goal to save for a better and larger home, determined to see our dreams materialize. Concurrently, I will persist in my livestock trading business, which serves as our primary source of income, ensuring that I can continue providing for my family's needs. Through these endeavors, I am driven by a profound sense of responsibility and love for my family, striving to create a brighter future filled with stability and prosperity."

"With six children enrolled in school, my primary focus as a parent revolves around investing in their education. It's my unwavering commitment to channeling my resources, both from transfers and whatever I earn, towards securing a brighter future for them through education. Their academic journey is not just a priority; it's the cornerstone of my aspirations for their success and fulfillment in life."

"I am staying with my mother-in-law, because my spouse married me when he had not built one. Currently he works in Mombasa but pays visits are short because there's not enough space. This makes it really important for us to have our own place. So, our main goal for the next few years is to build our own house. We're saving money to make this happen. I'm thankful for Give Directly because their help will make a big difference in building our home."

"In the years ahead, my main goal is to provide my mother with a new home. After our father's passing, we were left in an aging house that doesn't meet our needs. While I've managed to build a small house for myself, my mother's living conditions are far from ideal, with a deteriorating roof causing discomfort. With time still left to benefit from these transfers, I'm committed to saving as much as I can from both my monthly transfers and my daily efforts to achieve this goal. Initially, I had planned to upgrade my own house's roof, but I've realized that my mother's situation is more pressing. I'm grateful to Give Directly for their financial support, as it has given me hope of reaching my goal."

"In the upcoming months, my main focus is on getting more treatment for my eyes. Right now, even after going to the hospital, my vision isn't clear. It's been a struggle to see properly, and it's holding me back from fully engaging in various activities. But I'm hopeful that with the right treatment and care, I can regain my eyesight. Once my eyesight improves, I look forward to engaging in a range of activities that I've been unable to enjoy fully. Having a clear vision again will open up new opportunities for me and allow me to fully immerse myself in the world around me."

"In the coming year and beyond, my goal is to invest my financial support in purchasing livestock. This investment strategy promises to generate income in the future. As the herd grows, I will have the opportunity to sell livestock and access funds, even during emergencies. I am very happy and content with the financial support I have received so far. It has enabled me to become financially independent, reducing my reliance on my son."
