I have been investing my transfers majorly in school fees and clothing because they were my first priority. My children go to school when neat like other pupils. I also bought the school uniform for each one of them. I pay their fees with ease not forgetting myself I bought a few clothes for myself.

I have been saving and probably in the next four-month, I am planning to buy another cow apart from the two that I initially bought, because I wish to start a cattle rearing project. I know they will give me milk for both domestic and business purposes. This will enable me to have an additional source of income, and at times I can sell the young ones when I have a financial crisis like paying school fees.

Nowadays my children go to school when neat and happy. Through the transfers I was able to buy them new school uniform. The old ones were old and had patches all over. They look happy and eager to go to school because they are no longer mocked by their friends. I personally I'm neatly dressed, bought a few clothes for myself. Apart from that I also able to pay school fees with ease. I don't all these for granted, I must thank Give Directly for their support and determination to fulfill their promise

Since my second invetsment goes to cattle rearing, I believe after a few months, I will be milking my two cows, thus I will sell some and use the remaining for domestic use. I will use the money to pay fees for my children.

I never had a solar power panel which of course left me with the only option of using the paraffin lamps which are quite cumbersome to use considering their negative effects on the health of human beings. Right now my house gets to be so bright especially during the night hours, and my kids can study comfortably at night without straining like they used to do back then.

I have a new goal which includes buying new building materials which I will give to my son who wants to construct a new house. My son is also one of the beneficiaries of the monthly transfers and so far he has bought a number of iron sheets which he will use to accomplish such a target.

The biggest difference in my life is that my kids are now able to go to school uninterrupted like it used to happen before I started getting the transfers. I am able to buy them new school uniform so they do not have to wear rugs while going to school. Initially, my kids were being sent away from school every now and again due to lack of school.

I expect to make changes in my life which includes saving as much money as I can so that I can be able to pay school fees for my son who is currently finishing his primary school level education and will be joining form one come next year January. The admission fees for a new student is always very high so I have to make sure that I do that is possible to ensure that he has a smooth transition, otherwise if I do not do so then I might just run into problems come next year.

My life is currently different than it was four months ago because, from the transfers I have been receiving, I managed to buy some household items such as sufurias, plates, and cups. Previously, I had an inadequate number of sufurias and utensils thus I could always borrow some from a neighbor whenever I had visitors. Currently, I do not need to borrow any utensils because I have enough.

My additional goal in the next four months is to save my transfers and use them to buy a cow. I shall add my cow to the sheep thus the number of my livestock will go up. From the cow, I shall be able to get milk for free hence I shall be saving some money which I would have spent on buying milk and instead spend it on other basic household needs.

The biggest difference in your daily life in the last four months preceding the current transfer is owning two sheep. I had never imagined that one day I would be able to buy and keep a sheep in my life. This has boosted my dignity in my village and I always feel proud of GiveDirectly. When they give birth and increase in number, my wealth status in our society will indeed increase.

In the next six months, I expect to use my transfers to plaster my house. I am advanced in age and smearing the flour of my house with cow dung is always a tedious work because I always need to do that twice a month. I shall, therefore, not be affected by specks of dust which has been making me suffer from respiratory problems.

The life currently is different from before, I am able to buy food and clothes for myself something that I could not do before.

I am planning to fisnish plastering the walls of my house.

The biggest difference ius that I have been given finacial freedom I purchase some household itemms that I need.

In the next six months, the walls of my house will be plastered and my granddaughter's schools fees will have been settled.

I feel very happy that every month I will receive money and has reduced most of my stress and troubles. I can now plan my life well with this money. Thanks to Give Directly.

I would want to build a house since the one I have now is in bad shape.

My children have good school uniforms, I don't sleep on the floor anymore, I have a sheep that I have always longed for and we eat well as a family.

Apart from what I had, I do not have any new goal.
