"I spent my transfer on buying sheep and goats which I intend to keep since it has been one of my desire to have livestock in my home. I also paid school fees for two of my children who had been sent home for the same."

"I used the third transfer to buy a few households like furniture, bedding and steel doors. The previous house was too small to accommodate most of the households, so I couldn't buy more but when I received the second transfer I built a bigger house that has accommodated the households."

"I spent my third transfer to buy building materials like nails,iron sheets and polls that I used to build a kitchen where my children could sleep since my main house is too small."

"My life has change, I own a cow and I have fully paid my bridal price hence the respect accorded to me in the village is maintained as men are always expected to pay off the bridal price even before settling down with their wives."

"I bought two cows with the third transfer. I didn't have a cow and I used to budget for milk daily which was so expensive. I'm happy my cow has already given birth and now I have milk thus I do not budget for milk anymore."

"I spent my transfer to build my family a house that costed me 30,000 KES. I really needed to do this because I have a laughing stalk for a long period of time for being regarded homeless. The remaining amount I spent on acquiring furniture for my household and other household expenses. This is a full filled dream and all credit goes to GD."

"The biggest hardship i have faced in my life is being unable to pay school fees for my two children in secondary school. I have no employment and the maize i used to plant in order to sell and get money did not grow well this year"

"The biggest hardship was the demise of my wife in 2016.Life has been hard since then apart from emotional torture I have had to become the mother as well as the father to my kids.Doing both has been difficult since I can't sufficiently meet both social,emotional and basic needs. "

"I lost my husband when my children were young, this was so painful to me because he was our breadwinner. I was left struggling to provide basic needs for my family. That is my biggest hardship."

"Receiving this money means alot to me because my life will definitely change. I will use the money to start a business and improve my farming activities thus increasing source of income. "
