"In the next six months, I expect my life to change. I am planning to build a house using the help I receive monthly from GiveDirectly. I have been buying building materials every time I get the money at the end of the month. I also sleep in my step father's house which is in a bad condition, it leaks every time it rains and the pillars used in building it have broken. The house is almost collapsing. I worry that whenever their is strong wind, It can fall down. I hope it doesn't fall before the six months elapses."

"In the next six months, my life and that of my family is really going to be different. I am planning to build a permanent house for my parents. The house that we live in at the moment with my parents is really bad. It is almost collapsing. In the next six months, I would like to build a great permanent house. This will really reduce the embarrassment we have been going through. We are currently a laughing stock in our village because of the condition that we live in."

"The biggest difference in my life now is that my mother has a comfortable house where she stays. The kind of a house she used to have is one of the reasons why we could not go home regularly to visit her. Anytime we went home, we would have to go and find a sleeping place at my neighbours which really caused a lot of disrespect between us and our neighbours. Right now if I go home, I feel very proud because we no longer have to find a sleeping place at our neighbours. We are independent just like them."

"My son was admitted to join a national school since He had done well in his primary level of education. I was provided with the requirements sheet and I couldn't finish going through it, for it required a lot of money and kept thinking on where I could get all that money from. I am happy that through the GiveDirectly transfers, my son is now happily in school after doing a good shopping for him too."

"I expect my life to change drastically in the next six months. This is because my son who is at the university will have completed his studies. Consequently, we shall have more money to use which could otherwise have been used on educating him. Besides, my son will be available to support us physically and financially. Moreover, we shall be getting huge income from the sale of the potatoes that I have planted. Hence, we shall enjoy a higher standard of living - we shall have relatively adequate funds to be used in meeting the basic and non-basic needs for our family. Still, I will consider buying an additional piece of land because the one I have is a bit small. Overall, I will have bigger dreams in the next six months."

"In the next few months, I would expect to purchase a piece of land where I would expand my farming. This will be made possible by the huge profit which I make from my kiosk and tea farming."

"I expect my life has changed in that I will have furniture and a kitchen. One of my children who completed secondary educatio will will have joined a collage to ttrain and get skills fro employment and a good life a head. I look forward to it."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months because I'm planning to buy a donkey that we can use to ferry water to our homes. we used to carry water on our backs and it was hectic. Now we can plan to carry more water and, be relaxed at the same time. This also means that the hygiene in our homes will improve for the better."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months for the better when I start my clothes business. This means I will be able to cater to every need for my family without going for casual labor jobs in the village. I believe the business has good returns because of less competition. This is something we have discussed with my wife and we are passionate about it."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months when the cow I bought gives birth. This means that I can sell the milk to give me more money to support my family and my siblings and to also cater to the basic needs for everyone."
