"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I will have built an iron sheet roofed kitchen for my family. I am planning to achieve this by buying the building materials in bits every month using my transfers. I wish to build an Iron roofed kitchen because of the dangers that come with cooking in a grass thatched kitchen. Grass thatched houses are usually cheap but very risky as it can catch fire easily. I feel lucky because I can now afford to build it through the help I get from GiveDirectly. In addition to this, I am optimistic that I will have cleared paying school fees for my children thus they will not be sent back home from school."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I will have saved enough to enable me to start rearing goats. This will be an investment and when they reproduce I will sell them to buy another dairy cow."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I will be having enough sleep. This is because my commitments will have reduced hence I will not be overworking myself as I will have cleared paying school fees for my son who is in his final year in secondary school education. I am planning to stop doing casual work which majorly includes picking tea in other peoples farms so that I can concentrate on my own farm."

"That moment I received my money, I felt so happy because all my future plans arranged are coming to reality."

"In the next six months, I would want to continue paying school fees for my sister who is in secondary school. I would not want a repeat of what happened two weeks ago when my sister stayed home for two weeks because we did not have the money to pay."

"I feel relieved that we shall not experience famine in the future. We were able to cultivate a variety of food crops to sustain the family. I am glad that we also paid our son's tuition. This has stabilized the family. Prior to receiving the transfer, there was alot of tension on how to support our children bearing in mind that we have an extended family."

"I was overwhelmed with joy when I received my first transfer. In addition, I recieved an immediate peace of mind."

"I expect to buy household items like sofa seats to beautify my house. I would be glad when I shall have accomplished this as my house will be comfortable enough for my family and even visitors who come visiting."

"The moment I received my money, I over whelmed by joy because I knew my plan to own cows will be attained."

"The moment I received my transfer, became happy because I knew that I would be in position to pay part of the dowary for my wife and children's school fees."
