"In the next six months, I will have completed receiving transfers from Give Directly and I would be having a reliable source of income as I got twenty chicken which is about to start laying eggs. The money which I would be earning through this venture would enable me and my family to meet our daily expenditure and even pay school fees for our children."

"In the next six months, I will not be having any other plan than to complete furnishing my new house. I would like to make it a comfortable place for me and my grandchildren whom we are staying together."

"My expectation in the near future is have the ability to educate my children by paying their school fees. I will have two children next year in secondary school and it is quite a daunting job to pay these school fees and I hope I will be a position to meet this. I do not want to have my children sent from school for fee arrears. I really hope that by doing this, I will allow my children to have ample time to study and make a good life out of it. As a parent, I pray for the best for my children."

"My expectation in the near future is to grow financially by improving my business. Growing financially means I will be in a better position to take of my family and meet their daily needs and pay my children's school fees. I hope to be in a position where I no longer have to struggle and overwork in order to meet all these needs."

"My mother-in-law who recently passed away had been sick for a very long time. I had to stay home to nurse and take care of her therefore could not work regularly. This left my husband with all the burden of our household financial obligations including paying for his mother's medical bills. With the little he earns, it has always been so hard for him to keep up therefore was very stressed. I expect to go back to work so that I can support my husband financially and even in talking care the household needs."

"In the next six months I expect to continue investing in farming and getting enough produce for my consumption and also to sell some for my family up keep."

"In the next six months I would have started buying building materials to put up my own house to avoid inconveniency caused when sleeping in my uncle's house. I will also have started another investment like keeping cattle such as goats to act as security for my future use."

"My new goal is to continue with my savings. I am determined to keep my promise to my mother of building her a new house. I will channel the transfers to savings until I get the required amount to buy enough building materials for building her a decent house."

"The biggest difference in my daily life since I received this transfer is that my business is now doing well. Two months ago, I was very worried that it would collapse because I used most of the resources from it to handle my personal and family needs. I did not have any other income to help me boost the business. I knew soon I will not be having the business anymore. When GD promised to send the money, I knew my prayers were answered. When I finally received the transfer, I used most of it to boost the business because it was my biggest worry. Right now, the business is doing well and I get improved profits from the much I used to get before the transfers. As a result, I am able to pay school fees, medication and other family needs comfortably from the profits."

"The biggest difference in my life is the business which I started with part of my transfers. I used to depend on a small income from odd jobs in my area because I had tried looking for employment but could not get. I had to settle for what I had until GD came to my life. I knew this was my opportunity to making my life better. This is why I chose to start a cloth business with my transfers. Right now, I feel my life is moving on well because of the transfers. I do not struggle as before. Thanks to GD I can successfully meet my family needs in time and without having to borrow or seek for help."
