This year it will be different, If the rains come rightly, it will be my harvest year. On top of that I will have a house will iron sheets, something I never thought about. Am very thankful to GD for this and continue doing the same to other poor families."

"I have desired to start livestock business because it has a lot of profit. This has long been a wish that have never materialized but receiving this money will mean achieving this dream. I intend to use 80,000 shilling to venture into this project and this will assure me of huge income that will help me clear my children's school fee debts and also to cater to my family's other basic needs. I will spend the remaining amount to buy food for the family."

"Charcoal burning is what I have known in my life ever since I got married 25 years ago. This job is very tiresome and time-consuming but since I don't have an alternative job, I am always forced to doing this so that I get food for my children. Therefore, the lack of a decent source of income is the biggest hardship that I have ever faced in my life."
