"In six months’ time, I have high expectation that I will have bought a cow which will serve the family by providing milk for use and even for sale. Also, my husband has already rented a premise which we are yet to start operating as a shop. By six months' time, I am hopeful that the shop will be up and running and therefore our family income will expand."

"I am not hoping for any change in the next six months. One biggest hope is my health improvement as a result of these drugs that I can now afford to buy."

"Prior to receiving this cash transfer, I had 3 piece of land that couldn't match the family demands, being I a farmer I needed more land to cultivated crops to boost my income level to help with my children's education and medical care. When I got money from GiveDirectly I was able to pay for a piece of land that l have currently planted sweet potatoes which I will sell part to pay school fees and feeding. Secondly, I was in position to construct an iron roofed kitchen that does not need annual renovation like the previous hut I had."

"I am currently sleeping in my son's sitting room since my collapsed but I having received this transfer from GiveDirectly, I was in position to acquire the construction materials and constructed a one bed roomed iron roofed house that is left with fitting the door and windows. I am very happy because I have built a house of my own which I couldn't have built had I not recieved this transfer since my children are taken up with their family responsibilities."

"My life is different in that, I am having an operating salon that generates daily income for supporting my family. Before receiving this transfer, I had no stable source of income, I was making bricks but its income was seasonal that made it hard for to provide for family. In addition, I was in position to pay dowary to my in law that has given me an opportunity to stay with my wife, unlike before when my parents in laws returned their daughter because I had failed to get the needed dowary."

"My life has changed because the transfer I got has uplifted me. This is in form of the land I got to farm on and the one I will use until my money paid back. Prior to getting this transfer, I had no land to farm. The only land I have is where my house is and I always had to hire farm land on which I had to cultivate."

"In the next six months, I expect to have built a new house. Even though it won't be a luxurious one, it will be more comfortable to relax and live in. I plan to start a poultry farm also. They will help me a lot since I can decide to sell a few to cater for emergencies. Apart from that, I also expect a bumper harvest since I used certified seeds and fertilizers. My dairy cow is also almost calving so I expect some income from the sale of milk."

"In six months’ time, I have high expectation that I will have bought a cow which will serve the family by providing milk for use and even for sale. The long-awaited dream will have been made into reality and I hope that this will give us hope in my family to even sort out other things that are very necessary for the family."

"In the next six months, I will be financially stable in that I will have harvested the beans and sell it to earn income."

"I am very grateful that GiveDirectly sent me the cash transfers. I purchased a plot of land and even constructed a two roomed house. Previously, I was a squater on this plot and life was unpredictable and yet I have a big family that needs my support. These cash transfers have improved my standards if living. My children eat good food and dress decently."
