"In the coming years, I aim to venture into livestock farming, particularly cattle keeping. With six children in school, most of whom are in elementary school and have a long way to go in their educational journey, I believe that livestock keeping will be an excellent source for covering their school fees. Considering my husband's earnings from casual house construction jobs are very low, I'm uncertain if we can afford the children's education expenses. In the future, I can sell the cows to pay for my children's schooling. Buying calves would be a more affordable option for me, as they cost around $150 each. I hope to save some of the cash transfers to make this plan a reality."

"My ultimate goal is to own goats. I've been trying to keep chickens, but they often succumb to coccidiosis. I bought two hens with the cash transfers, and they also fell victim to the disease. This has discouraged me from continuing to raise poultry. I believe that goats have a better survival rate and are more resilient, which is why I'm now focusing on them. I aim to build wealth by raising goats so that when the transfers end, I can sell them to support my children's education."

"I plan to expand my food stand business. I'm delighted that the cash transfers have already given my business a boost during the time I've been part of the program. However, I aim to expand it further and offer a variety of foods. Currently, I focus on basic dishes like rice, beans, 'chapatis,' and cornmeal. I would like to broaden the menu to include dishes like biryani, pilau, and others to attract more customers. I hope to invest some of the cash transfers in making this expansion possible."

"Currently, I have a plan to build a new house. Our current house is in poor condition, and I'm willing to save through a savings group to acquire a more spacious and decent house. The current one-room house is too small, and I share the space with my husband. When we have guests, it becomes very inconvenient, and we have to ask our relatives to accommodate them. My goal is to acquire a house with at least two rooms, made with mud walls and an iron sheet roof, to provide us with more space."

"In the upcoming year and beyond, I aspire to build a new house and continue supporting the education of my four children through livestock rearing. Our current house is in poor condition, with a corroded roof that leaks during rainy weather. I aim to construct a three-room house with mud walls and a tin roof to provide decent shelter for my family. I also want to ensure that I can sustain my children's education even when the cash transfers come to an end. Most of them have a long way to go in their educational journey, and they will need my financial support."

"My main goal is to build an extension to my house. I recently constructed a one-room house with substantial support from the cash transfers. I had been staying in my brother-in-law's house ever since my own house collapsed. Since my husband couldn't afford to build a new house with his limited income, I decided to use the cash transfers to invest in a new house. However, I still feel the need to extend an extra room to the house because the current single room is cramped for me, my daughter, and her two children. Therefore, my focus is on building this extension to create ample space for everyone. I also intend to start rearing livestock like goats to build up wealth, which will enable me to cover future household expenses such as food and school fees for my two children."

"My plan is to open a grocery shop, which I believe will not only provide me with a source of income but also help support my family. Additionally, I plan to invest in livestock, expanding my current holdings and building a larger space for them. This move will not only help me generate an income but also create a foundation for long-term financial security. These cash transfers have opened up new doors for me ensuring a better future for my family."

"My primary goal is to complete my house, which has been a long-standing dream. With the help of these transfers, I believe I can make this dream a reality. Additionally, I'm saving $10 every month to invest in a tailoring training. Once I've acquired the necessary skills, I plan to purchase a sewing machine and start my own tailoring business. This will not only offer me a chance for financial independence but also the opportunity to provide for my family and cover my children's school fees.Once the program is over, I will have both a house and a business to sustain me."

"Certainly, I am experiencing a significant improvement in my life compared to before. The assurance that my family has enough food on the table has brought a profound sense of peace to my daily life. No longer do we worry about going hungry or scrounging for meals. Additionally, having a comfortable mattress to sleep on has drastically improved the quality of my sleep and overall well-being. It might seem like a simple thing, but a good night's rest is invaluable. I am truly grateful for that."

"My primary goal is to complete my studies in electrical and electronic engineering, and I believe that with dedication and hard work, my dreams will come true. After my education, I plan to open an electronics shop within the village, which would be the first of its kind. During my school breaks when I'm not paying school fees, I intend to invest in livestock and rear them for future sales. This will enable me to accumulate the funds needed to open the electronics shop. I'm determined to achieve this goal and create a source of income for myself and my family."
