"I have for a very long time desired to keep sheep onmy farm.This has not been fulfilled because I don't have an income good enough to enable me to buy sheep. I am peasant farmer and I rely on maize crop. Due to adverse weather in our region, my Harvest has been so poor over the years only allowing to use it for food. I haven't gotten enough money to buy animals but receiving tarnsfers from GiveDireclty means that I will buy about 10 sheep.Sheep multiply very quickly and becomes a nice way of making money as a farming method that I can embrace."

"I am currently operating a video show in Mariango center, and the equipments am using in there are not mine. It has always been my greatest desire to fully own the business one day and am hopeful Give Directly is coming to my aid. Receiving this money means am going to acquire full ownership of the business and more returns will be coming my way. In addition, the house am living in right now is not complete. I still need to do partitioning and other final touches. The open windows have subjected my one-year old child to cold. I want to live a better life in a livable house and proceeds from the business will cater for this."
