"My life is now different in that I now own cattle again. I never imagined I would own cattle again in my home. I had exhausted all the money I received after selling the remaining two cows I had. I only depended on burning and selling charcoal; which was not giving back very good money. I am grateful to Give Directly that I now have cattle again."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that will have completed building the house and my family will have a nice house to live. my children also will not go to the neighbor's house to sleep and that they will have enough time to do their assignment on time and improve their performance in school."
