"I expect my life to change in the next six months because I will have diversified my income sources hence I will no longer strain so much to get the money both for my family consumption as well as to pay school fees for my daughter."

"Through this finacial support, I was able to acquire 2 cows that I intend to use for paying dowary. I am also planning to renovate my hut that currently leaks whenever it rains. Before receiving this transfer, I did have enough money to acquire cows for paying my wife's dowary and renovating my hut."

"My life is different in that, I have got back my two acres of land that were taken by the money lenders. I am expecting increased yields from these two additional acres of land this season. Furthermore, I have owned cows that will help me with my children's education. Previously we did have enough money to settle the debts and buy cows since there was no stable source of income."

"I am currently sleeping in grass thatch hut that needs yearly renovation but in the process of constructing an iron roofed house. When I shift to my new house, it will relieve me from the burden of renovating my hut yearly. In addition, I have owned a cow for milk. Prior to receiving this cash transfer, I did have enough money to construct an iron roofed house and buying a cow."

"My life has changed for the better in that, I was able to fit doors and plaster my commercial house that has taken 2 years without doors. I believe soon it will start generating income for paying school fees when it's rented. Before receiving this transfer, I didn't have enough money to complete my commercial house since the little money I got was spent for paying my children's school fees."

"The biggest difference in my life is that, I have got additional two acres of land that I believe will increase my yields this sason. The agricultural produce I get will help me in paying my children's school fees. Previously, my children were sent from school because I didn't pay their fees in time since agricultural produce were low."

"My life has improved in that, I have owned livestock and I was able to renovate my iron roofed house which was at a very bad state(a leaking roof and unplastered). Before receiving this transfer, I didn't have enough money to buy a cow and renovate my house."

"My main focus at the moment is to ensure that I bring back my children and ensure that they all sleep at home every night. The problem they have been undergoing as they share beddings with my neighbor's children should end soon now that I hope to complete the construction of a new house before December so that all things can be set right."

"I was woken up by a message notification on my phone early in the morning. I went through the message and its contents and for sure, I could not believe at first that it was from GiveDirectly. I read it again and I was instantly filled with happiness when I confirmed that it was real and GiveDirectly had honoured their promise to me by sending the transfer."

"I expect a great change in my life in that my neighbors will be astonished of how I have bought more goats and chicken within the next six months. In order to have this stock in place, I will save most of the transfer in the merry go round. I will sell some in the future when they have matured and cater to my family's needs comfortably."
