"Receiving this money will help me pay secondary school fees for my daughter. I will commit 200 USD to paying the fees. I will then build a two bed room house at a cost of 400 USD. My current house is small and not in a good condition. Finally I will buy 5 goats at a cost of 30 USD."

"Hunger"

"I will build a proper house for myself"

"The biggest hardship I have ever experienced is the inability to pay school fees for my children. This is so because I used to rely on farming as a source of livelihood. But due to unfavorable climatic conditions in our area that did not support farming, I had to relinquish farming and start looking for casual jobs. Being new to this field, I normally get 400 shillings per day and this is hardly enough to sustain my family's needs including school fees. This would mean we had to sometimes forego meals in a day to cut down on food expenses."

"I will use the money to buy some livestock to rear in order to raise money for buying other household necessities in future. I will also buy mattress and clothes for the children."

"It means a lot as I have to buy household items that I am lacking"

"It means a lot to me"

"Receiving this money means I will finally fulfil my dream of owning a decent shelter for my family. Currently, I am living in a small grass roofed house which requires maintenance every year.

"Being a substance farmer, growing maize on a small-scale for food and sometimes to sell them to earn some income for my other needs like shelter. At the moment, my strength is decreasing due to my old age. My dream has been to purchase oxen and ox-plow that will assist me in the preparation of my farm. Receiving this money means fulfillment of my wish as planning to spend $ 400 on purchasing 2 oxen. I will use the remaining amount to purchase a bed and bedding."
