Chengo received a $24 eighteenth payment.
"As the year draws to a close, my primary objective is to initiate and fund the construction of my new house. Establishing this home will not only provide me with a secure and comfortable place to live but also safeguard my property. To realize this ambition, I plan to allocate a portion of my monthly stipend towards purchasing the necessary building materials. Once the construction is completed, I intend to redirect the funds into acquiring livestock, which will serve as an additional income stream when I decide to sell them in the market. This two-fold plan will help me achieve both the stability of a new home and a sustainable source of revenue in the future."

Samuel received a $24 tenth payment.
"Before the cash transfers, I faced challenges in paying my tuition fees and depended on my mother's earnings from charcoal burning. However, with the cash aid, I have been able to take care of most of my school needs, alleviating the burden on my mother. The financial support has inspired me to plan for a more secure future, especially when I go to university. My goal is to buy livestock and use it as a means to grow my wealth. Specifically, I want to rear goats because they have the advantage of reproducing 2 to 3 times a year, which means their numbers can increase relatively quickly. Through this, I can build up a sizeable herd over time, and when the need arises, I can sell some of them to cater to my university tuition fees."
