Receiving the cash transfers means so much for me and my family. I believe it will change my life positively. For the first cash transfer I plan to grow grass which will be a source of income for my family. I will use about KES 18000. For the second cash transfer I intend to use about KES 30000 to build a fishing boat and purchase nets for fishing. For the remaining KES 15000 I intend to further invest in growing grass for sale. For the third cash transfer I intend to boost my fishing business by employing three fishermen whom we will work together in furthering my fishing expedition.
