"I expect in the next six months to use the savings from the merry go round that we formed as the beneficiaries of GiveDirectly in my village. I intend to use this saving to buy construction materials and cement my kitchen with them. I shall be one of the happiest individuals since I will own a very clean kitchen free from dust and I believe it would last for a long period of time because the plaster will make the wall very strong."

"The moment I received my money, I felt happy that I had got money that would help me in most of my needs and anxious on its entire expenditure."

"My daily life's biggest difference is the ability to acquire some house hold items (mattresses, utensils and clothing) that have greatly improved my standard of living. This is because my house looks presentable and it makes me feel happy. In addition, I am delighted that I will start up my saloon business that will be a source of my family daily income. This will keep me employed and an additional way to provide for my family as compared to before when I had to only do casual labor to cater for my family needs."

"My parent promised that I will join college next year, but only if we can manage to make enough savings to enrol me into one and pay at least one year's fees. So far, it has been a challenge making decent savings because we still have other development plans back at home, leaving my chances of ever going to college very slim. I have been trying to save on my own from the transfers and my salary and I hope that in six months, I will have a reasonable amount that if I present to my parents, will give them the morale of following in my footsteps so that when the time comes for me to join college, we will be financially ready."

"I am currently in the process of acquiring construction materials that I will use to construct an iron roofed house. In addition, I am planning to acquire a bed and a new mattress. Previously, I couldn't afford construction materials and labour."

"In the next six months, I expect to buy building materials like iron sheets that I plan to use in building a new house. I have a very small house that hardly accommodate my large family. In as much it is in good condition, it is not comfortable enough as we have to literally squeeze in it as the family members are many. I also look forward to owning livestock for rearing to secure my family financially."

"In the next six months, I expect to have gotten the first feel of what the poultry business is like because by then, I will have sold the first batch. By this time I will also have gotten much more knowledge and experience on how to run the entire project for better results and good profits. I believe by then the business will have grown to at least twice of what it is right now."

"In the next six months, I would expect that the heifer which I would have bought would have matured and started lactating. When I get to sell the milk it would enable me to raise money which would help me to meet my family needs."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I am now a proud owner of a dairy cow. I would not have fulfilled my life goal of owning one had it not have been for GiveDirectly. I will be earning income from it through the sale of milk when it reproduces."

"I foresee a change in my life in the next six months. I will have cleared my children's school fees using the income I will get from the sale of onions. This will enable them to study well without any interruptions thus their performance will improve."
