"I expect my life to have improved in the next six months,.My poultry project will have expanded and my daily income will be higher. In addition to this, I will be a livestock keeper as I will have a cow that will be heading towards milk production. I am confident because all is set now for a mwrry go round group to raise money for each one of the members to buy a cow. My life will have improved greatly."

"Nothing compares to the joy of knowing that I am part of GiveDirectly's beneficiaries. A few years ago the demand for school fees for my grandchild's college education rendered my house construction incomplete. Receiving this money will go a long way in plastering the floor to my one bed roomed house with concrete, which has been my desire for a long time. In doing so I would have gotten rid of too much dust which has always posed as health hazard when sweeping it. "

"I expect to boost my business some more which will, in turn, generate more income to help improve our living standards. By the end of the six months, I shall have bought more livestock for rearing to help in the generation of income for my family."

"I believe by the end of the six months, I shall have bought the livestock for rearing as financial security for the family. I have always wanted to venture into it so that we will not be stranded financially during any emergencies. By then, I would be bragging about my newly finished house as I shall have bought more cement to finish plastering my house."

"With my current plan to purchase and install a chaff cutter in my dairy shed, I am expecting that the whole process will be done within the next six months. I have put this as a priority since for the last few months, I have been having a great challenge in the preparation of the cow feeds every morning. The whole process has been taking much of my time. This machine will simplify the hard work I have been doing and at least spare me some time to work on other ongoing projects in our household."

"The biggest hardship I face in my life is poverty. My main source of income is through farming and when the crops fail to give good yields, it means my household income is affected directly and many activities like paying school fees will not be achieved. "

"My biggest hardship is lack of adequate land for cultivation. We have few gardens which cannot produce enough food for home consumption and for sale."

"Receiving this money means that I will buy cement, iron sheets, bricks and sand to complete my permanent house. Part of the money if there is a balance, will be used to buy household items like; beddings and cooking utensils. Currently we have a shortage of household items because the number of family members has grown and for example, the current saucepans cannot cook enough food at once."

"Receiving this money means acquiring an acre of farm land in order to enhance good production. I will be able tobpriduce enough crops for household consumption s well as sale in order to raise school fees for my children. Currently, I hire land but it is not very sustainable because of the high cost of hiring. "

"Receiving this money means I will be able to take care of my children's education needs and buy a cow that will reproduce and help me in talking care of future eventualities when they arise. These will support my family. "
