"Having enough farm inputs for the next farming season is what receiving this money means to me, i depend on agriculture to earn aliving so i would like to invest in agriculture so that i should double the money and have a stable farming business if some money will remain i will buy maize for food and furniture for my house."

"I am happy for this because I dont have another source of money"

"I have a chips frier and I normally sell fries at our local shopping center. On average day i normally use KES 4000 to purchase potatoes, cooking oil and other requirements such as tomato sauce. My income from the business after I have deducted all expenses is approximately KES 2000. Receiving this money will enable me to expand my business. I will be able to rent a shop as I am currently operating from another person's verandah. This I believe will give me a bigger opportunity of earning more from the business."

"I have received the program with both hands. The money will help me to build a nice house, new beddings, matresses and fertilizers."

"I am so grateful to be part of the program. The money will help me to build a house. My house was destroyed due to heavy rains. The money has come at a right time such that I will be able to buy all needed items in preparation. The money will also be used to buy food. I am also struggling with distance and I will buy a bicycle to ease movement."

"I am very excited to see that I have been considered in this program. The program means a lot to me. I have been desiring to build a house and this is my chance to build one. I will also buy beddings because my beddings are not nice."

"The main challenge is lack of money which makes it difficult for me to make both ends meet."

"I want to use this money to build a house because I need a good house"

"The money means a lot to me. I will now be able to construct a house, buy kitchen and some household items. The money will also help me to buy food because our harvest is not enough for the year. I will also buy fertilizer in readiness for next growing season."

"This village is very far from town and the only thing that makes us be here is the abundance of land. The problems associated with this land is that the cultivation is never done properly as we lack necessary farming materials each year. Hence, we always farm on a small scale and eventually end up not harvesting enough. Lack of inputs is always the biggest hardship we face here."
