"My everyday goal revolves around ensuring that my child's education remains uninterrupted, ensuring timely payment of fees and providing all necessary school supplies without delay. However, my long-term aspirations extend to owning a substantial herd of livestock and expanding my grocery business. As the project's conclusion approaches, my priority is to achieve complete financial independence, supported by a stable income and lasting investments. To realize this, I plan to expand my grocery business by diversifying my stock and introducing new products that are in high demand within the community. Currently operating from my home, I envision constructing a centralized shop in the future to attract a broader customer base and enhance profitability. Regarding livestock, I view it as a long-term investment strategy. While direct purchases of larger animals like goats and cows may be out of reach initially, I have adopted a gradual approach by starting with more affordable options such as poultry, including chickens and geese. These birds are eventually sold to accumulate funds for acquiring goats. In the future, these goats will serve as a financial safety net, providing a means to raise funds during times of economic hardship. By combining short-term business expansion with long-term livestock investment plans, I aim to secure my financial future and achieve self-sufficiency as the project draws to a close."

"Completing high school in 2019 marked a significant milestone for me, but pursuing further education has been hindered by financial constraints. My parents' limited income and massive financial responsibilities on my elder brother who is a teacher have made it challenging for them to support my aspirations. Determined to advance my education, I have resolved to sponsor myself through college, with plans to enroll later this year to study Automotive Engineering. Currently employed as a locally hired teacher at a nearby school, I am able to earn a modest income, which will play a crucial role in funding my education. The funds from the GD program will also be instrumental in bolstering my savings and supporting my monthly expenses, especially once I resign from my current job. While I'm yet to ascertain the exact amount required for college enrollment, I am committed to establishing a rigorous savings plan as soon as I obtain this information. Achieving a college certificate by the conclusion of this project would be a source of immense pride for me, serving as a lasting testament to the impact of this endeavor on my life. I'm determined to overcome financial obstacles and realize my dream of higher education, fueled by perseverance and the support of the GD program."

"In the coming year and beyond, I hope to purchase livestock, particularly goats. These animals have helped me raise funds to pay for my children's high school fees in the past. I used to own some goats, but due to the financial burden of school fees, I was forced to sell them. However, I am grateful that my children are now enrolled in school, thanks to the goats and the transfers. I intend to buy more goats, breed them, and let them multiply. They are a way to save for the future of my children's education, as they are still young. Although it may be difficult to meet their educational needs, with the goats, I can sell them to pay for my children's fees."

"Despite possessing a stretch of land fit for conversion into a farm, my advancing age renders me unable to utilize it fully. Nevertheless, I wish that this land could still prove beneficial if I were to introduce livestock, allowing them to graze and utilize its productivity with minimal effort on my part. In the coming year and beyond, my focus will be on nurturing the few livestock I currently have, comprising chickens and goats. These resilient animals thrive even in harsh conditions, and I am hopeful that they will multiply, serving as a valuable asset for buying foodstuff in the future when I am no longer able to work actively."

"In the coming year and beyond, my family and I have a clear plan to expand our livestock holdings by purchasing at least three additional goats to add to our existing herd of 20. This endeavor represents our primary focus within our community, as goats are resilient even in harsh climatic conditions. Moreover, it serves as a reliable source of income during periods of agricultural uncertainty, as the sale of a single goat can sustain our family of three for over a week. Despite the challenges faced in other farming endeavors, ensuring an adequate food supply for my children remains a top priority as well. To this end, I have earmarked a portion of the $300 saved from the final transfer for purchasing goats, while the remainder will be allocated towards household food provisions as we explore alternative means of sustenance."

"After receiving the cash transfer, my biggest dream is to finally build a house of my own. Currently, I share living space with my grandmother, but I long for the freedom and independence that having my own home would bring. To achieve this goal, I've devised a plan where I participate in a merry-go-round with three others, depositing $15 each time I receive my share. This steady saving allows me to accumulate enough money to buy all the necessary building materials at once from the hardware store. With determination and patience, I believe that in the coming year or beyond, I will be able to turn my dream of owning a home into a reality, providing myself with security and a place to call my own."

"For too long, I've been relying on my brother's hospitality for a place to sleep, and it hasn't been easy. But now, with a clear plan in mind, I'm determined to build my own house before the year ends. I've already made some progress. I've managed to save up 12 pieces of iron sheets and 30 building poles. My goal was to gather 14 iron sheets and 40 building poles, and I'm not far off. With hard work and perseverance, I believe I can achieve my dream of having a place to call my own, where I can finally find peace of mind and independence."

"Looking ahead, my goal is to expand my investments by increasing the number of goats I keep. Right now, I have four goats, but I aim to add five more by the end of this year. With a solid savings plan in place, I am confident that I can turn this dream into a reality. By growing my goat herd, I hope to secure a better future for myself and my family, ensuring financial stability and independence in the long run."

"Looking ahead to the coming year, my main goal is to make my home stable and secure. The walls were weakened by the last heavy rain, and it's been a constant worry for me. By June, I aim to renovate the house, strengthening its structure and ensuring it can withstand any future storms. I've started a saving plan, putting aside $15 each month, which I believe will accumulate enough to cover the renovation costs. This project is my top priority, as having a safe and stable home is essential for my family's well-being and peace of mind."

"My goal for the coming year and beyond is to become a successful goat farmer. I'm taking steps toward this dream by starting with chicken farming, knowing that five grown chickens can be exchanged for a goat. Right now, I have two goats, but by the end of this year, I aim to increase my herd by adding three more. With determination and careful planning, I believe I can achieve my dream of expanding my livestock and building a sustainable livelihood through goat farming."
