My life is currently different in that I got enough time to work on my farm. I now have healthy crops which are almost ready for harvesting. Initially, I wouldn't get time to work on my farm and the little money that I got from casual jobs would be spent on buying food. I am glad I won't buy food any time soon because there is the hope of getting a bumper harvest this season

My next goal is to save my next transfer with an intention to buy a goat. I believe that I will have more offsprings because the goats have a short gestation period. Therefore within a year, I will have enough goats to do something tangible. I can as well sell them whenever a financial need arises

The greatest difference in my life currently is that I am able to easily pay school fees for my children with ease. Apart from that, I am I also get time to work on my farm compared to when I used to do casual jobs. Previously, I would spend much time working on other peoples farm just to earn money for paying school fees. Nowadays I priorities my farm first because the biggest worry which is paying school fees has been catered for. For the last four months, I have been spending my transfer on paying school fees and buying food. Being able to meet these two major responsibilities is the greatest achievement so far.

I am planning to have established a sustainable source of income in the next six months through cattle rearing. I believe I would have both two goats and cows which will reproduce and increase in number. Through the sale of their offsprings, I will be able to sustain my self without taking loans or selling my most valuable assets

Now since I receive these transfers from GD, I no longer go for casual jobs on a daily basis unlike before when I use to spent most of my time working on other peoples farms for pay. With GD money I have managed to take care of my household expenditure and to pay school fees for my children.

Now, I do not have any goals for the next four months because I will be spending the transfers to pay the school fee for my child. This had been a big challenge to me but since GD came and support us, the burden has been lessened.

The biggest difference in my daily life is that now I got to pay school fees for my children on time. They are no longer being sent home for school fees as I can pay school fees on a monthly basis. I use to depend on casual jobs to see them through school. Currently, the money which we get from casual jobs we spend to purchase foodstuff for the family.

I expect my life to change to be better than it is now in the next six months. I am planning to buy more sheep to add to the ones I currently have. Once they mature, they will reproduce and will be more in number. This will not only be assets to me but a source of wealth. I will sell some to buy a cow and even take my children to school. I will be no longer depending on casual jobs and will have improved my farming.

My life is quite different from how it was before in that I am able to plan myself and ensure all the required resources for our children and I are well catered for. I am less stressed and worried because I can better plan myself.

My new goal for the next few months is to ensure that I save enough money to enable me buy a dairy cow for rearing.

The biggest difference in my daily life is that I am able to feed my children well. Before, it was sometimes so hard to get a day's food since most of what we worked would go into school fees for the older children. Right now I am able to plan myself well to both pay school fees and still have enough to feed them.

My expectation in the near future is to complete building my house. Before my spouse got sick, this project was ongoing but when his health detaroriated, so much resources went into treating him. So much resources were used such that we were never able to complete building it. Then transfers from Givedirectly has given me some hope of building it to completion in the near future. Once the house is complete, I will be able to live a more comfortable life.

I am very optimistic and focus about life since i am sure about the transfer.

I am planning to buy a calf that will help me in future to get milk for my family.

I am very happy that i now get money to buy food for my family each month that initially has not been my priority since i could struggle for school fees so much.

I am planning to renovate my old house that will make me thank G.D forever.
