At the moment, I was able to buy roofing material such as timbers, iron sheets and nails. Although rain season have started, I couldn't help it but to roof my house immediately. I am now able to spent the night with peace and comfort."

"The only source of water we have for our family dairy cows is from a village pond two Kilometres away from here. It is filthy, and on many occasions, my cows would refuse to drink it. As a result, they have not been giving us enough milk. I wish to dig a well to avail clean water for these cows and also for our family. The animals will produce enough milk for the family and surplus for sale and as such our household income will increase."

"This money has helped me alot, I stay in my brother's house who is in South Africa. I don't have my own house and I have been depressed on where I will stay with my family if my brother decides to come back home. The small business I have, I can not afford to build a house of my own. This money has helped me to afford iron sheets which is a big step towards building a house. When the last transfer comes, I will be able to build my own house. The transfer has also boosted my business, which I can now make good profits to support my family."

"Receiving this money means that I will now be able to have a better house with iron sheets. I have been living in a dilapidated house for many years and now this is a relief to me and my family."

On top of that, I have a house with iron sheet, I won't have problems with the rains this year and this is the best thing ever happened in my like and am thankful to GD."
