"The biggest difference in my life is happiness, knowing am going to sleep in my own iron sheet roofed house soon."

"In the early year 2000 I was arrested for allegedly roughing up an old man in the village. I stayed in a Kericho town cell for about a week and this ordeal direly affected me both physically and emotionally because I was assaulted by fellow inmates. It took the intervention of the villagers to vouch for me that I was innocent, and got released. Being mistaken and suffering for a crime I did not do is the biggest hardship I have faced in my life. "

"I am now happy and feeling good that I am among the GD recipients and I am no longer depending on other people to help me as well as the whole family like we used to do before. Right now I can do my own things with my own money."

"My father who was the sole provider died when my siblings and I were very young, it became so hard for my mother to provide basic needs to us. Sometimes I was forced to do casual work at a tender age so that I can get cash to buy food for my siblings, that was a great challenge to me."

"My biggest hardship is lack of money to afford my household's basic needs."

"The biggest hardship i am faced with is lack of money to invest in extensive agricultural production."
