I entirely depend on casual jobs which are sometimes hard to find. but with these transfers, I find it easier taking care of my family's needs. Most especially in the provision of food on a daily basis. As a result, my family and I are happy and healthy.

I am currently saving part of my transfers which I am planning to use to start a poultry farming project soon.

This harvesting season, the yields were worrying because I was able to get two sacks of corns which could not take as through to the next harvesting season. The biggest difference in my daily life is that GiveDirectly's transfer has come in handy since I have been able to eat a balanced diet on a daily basis. I am glad that I haven't borrowed money nor slept without a meal so far

In the next six months, I will have saved enough money to expand the domestic poultry keeping project because I foresee a recommendable market when it is on a large scale. When combining the wages I make from the casual jobs to the sales from this project it will be enough to sustain my family's need comfortably.

My life is currently different from how it was four months ago this is because my family has enough provision in terms of food to eat and this makes me a happy parent and household head. Before we could go without food on days that the hustle was difficult and all under my care were suffering, this really pained my heart but \I had no powers to change the whole situation but to push harder until when GD came to my rescue.

Sincerely speaking, my plan is to see my household have enough food so that the situation mentioned above never repeats itself again.

The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have been able to access food in my household. This was the biggest challenge before I started receiving the transfers. I used to do casual jobs and with my age, this felt like death. I struggle to make ends meet and on most days we could choose which meals to take and the once to forgo so that our budget fits in. This meant sleeping on an empty stomach on several occasions.

In the next six months, I am hopeful that anything else might lack in my household but not food. I will work to ensure east or west adequate food is there in my household. This will give me peace having been in a place where my hands were tied I would want to face that ever again.

I was malnourished because of lack of adequate meals. Proper feeding has boosted my immunity and I have not experienced sickness more often as before. Surely GD has lifted my life.

Already, I have managed to lease a parcel of land and it has been tilted, ready to plant maize. This I will enable to sell to do other projects.

In the past, in several occurrences, I did not have capacity to afford meals. I am landless and farming is not that easy. This resulted to lack of food in the house. Since I started receiving money from GD, I could afford meals daily.

My life will definitely change. As per my plans, I hope to get good harvest from my farm. I intend to start poultry project to sustain my life. I am old and poultry project will supply me with eggs and chicken, both for sale and for nutrition purposes. The project does not require a lot of movements and therefore will be suitable for an old man like me.

My family now gets enough food and I do not have to be working so hard due to my old age.

I plan to buy a goat in the near future. I wanted to buy a cow but this amount is too little to buy a cow.

I have been able to get food for the family without so much difficulty.

I will have my goat and I also plan to add more chicks that I will rear and earn some profits out of the business.

The goal I have is to start rearing goats. Building a shelter for the goats and be able to increase their number and grow it up to become a farmer.

The difference is I will be able to feed well without having to go through a hustle of fending for my family and at times going without food.

My life will change, I will probably be having a larger number of goats. My son's school fees will not be a problem any more. We will also afford to eat well in the household level.

The biggest difference in my daily life since I started receiving payments is I am able to eat well and feed my family with ease. There are days that we could go without food due to lack of enough money and increased needs.
