"I have a goal of saving the coming transfers so that I can use them to start up a business in the next four months. Therefore, in the next six months, I believe I'll have started the business and use the coming transfers to expand the business."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I would be having a new kitchen. I am planning to save part of my transfers so that I may be able to buy building materials such as iron sheets and timber which I will use in building a kitchen for my grandchildren to spend in."

"The biggest hardship I am facing is that I earn less money which is not enough to cater for my familys welfare.The little money I earn is divided upon so many needs of which is not enough."

"The biggest hardship I face is inadequate land in order to cultivate in. The land we cultivate in us hired and what belonged to us was leased out due to failure to at a loan that we had got in order to start up a business. We are spending a lot of money in order to secure where to cultivate but it is not sustainable."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have built a better and spacious house for my family. We used to live in a small mud house which could not host all my family comfortably. I remember I used to cook and also sleep in the same house with my grown-up children which is a taboo in our culture. Whenever I had a visitor I could take them to sleep at the neighbor's house and this was so embarrassing. At times grown-up children could feel uncomfortable and they were forced to sleep at their grandmother's house and this was so risky because they could walk during the night. Currently, they have a good place to do their assignment and do their own private things without any interference from anyone. We are so grateful for the support because it has changed our living standard."

"I got the message notification on the transfer from GiveDirectly early in the morning that day. For sure I could not wait for daybreak to plan on how I was going to spend the money. I was exceedingly happy that this money was going to change my life a lot, a thing that actually came to pass. I managed to buy some valuable assets such as livestock and other assets."

"In the next six months, I shall have bought the building materials like cement and sand and plastered my house. I look forward to having a beautiful house to my name. I shall venture into livestock rearing for the financial security of the family. This will help in generation of income to change our lifestyles."

"My main aim currently is to save some money so that I can enroll in a driving school. I'm planning to achieve this through the coming transfers. Therefore, I believe that in the next six months I'll have saved enough money to enable me to enroll in a driving school."

"Receiving this money means I will be able to bring back the piece of land that we loaned out to someone. I picked 400.000ugx from a neigubour and he took one piece of land as security which I have failed to repay todate, I know the GD money will help me repay that money and I get back my garden."

"The biggest hardship I am facing is of food insecurity since I dont have enough land to cultivate food crops.The land I currently occupy is where I built this small iron roofed house and theres little land left for agricutural cultivation. I end up engaging into casual labour for survival and the little money I get is used for welfare purposes."
