"The biggest difference this transfer has made in my life is that unlike in the previous years, this year by this time i have enough food for my household. Iam sure and certain that this year there will be no cases of malnutrition in my family."

"Me and my whole we were very happy for the money knowing that will have food to eat and also will build an ironsheet house"

"I was so excited and happy..The cash meant that the major challenges that I have been facing in the past will now come to an end..I'm forever grateful for this program"

"I started buying a few things for the house am about to start building once the rains are over. I also have purchased mattress and beddings as we didn't have a proper good place to sleep. The rest went towards fertilizer and food as well as keeping some for future use."

"The first thing that came to mind was to build a a house so i started buying materials such as nails,wood, iron sheets among others. The other money went towards beddings and mattress for me and my chidlren. The rest of the money went to food and also kept some for day to day expenses."

"I bought 20 iron sheets for my house that i plan on building. I have a house but it is a small one so with the money I am receiving from GD I will build a bigger house and this is 1 step towards the house. I went on and bought a mattress so that I nolonger have to sleep on an empty sack. I bought 2 bags of maize to add to my storage so that I do not run out of food while waiting for my harvest. I also hired help with my garden as I am expecting a child and can not farm for long . The remaining money I bought some baby things that I will need when my baby comes such as a wash basin and napkins."

"My life has changed. I now have food and we are able to eat 3 times a day. This is a good and great change because I now have less to worry about."

"It was simply the best feeling ever that is to receive such a huge sum of money for free. It is a gesture i cannot forget. It is unbelievable."

"I was very happy Because now my school going grand child will now have uniforms and I can feed them which is always my worry"

"I bought iron sheets 24 so that I use them for the new roof of the house I plan on building when I recieve my second transfer. I went on and bought 4 bags of maize since I did not have any food left in my house I was depending on buying weekly buckets of maize. I did not have a nice place to sleep on. I went and bought 3 blankets for the whole family and a mattress. To add on I spent the remaining money to purchase 4 bags of fertilizer so that i boost my crops in the field so that I have a good harvest."
