Personally I am staying a happy life compared to before because I have food and money and my life together with my family has drastically changed positively. I can testify this because my children are eating well they don't go hungry at times like before and I pay their fees on time and with a lot of ease.

The additional goal I have for my life for the next four months is to boost my poultry farming. I have started buying chicken for rearing because I am planning to start a chicken business. This is because of financial security and also it will act as an additional source of income, I can use the sales from it to pay fees for my children.

The biggest difference in my daily life in the last four months preceding the current transfer is that my family does not go hungry and also I do not strain a lot unlike before to provide for them. Most of the transfers I receive from giving Directly I use on farming, for example, hiring labour, buying fertilizer and leasing land.I managed to get a bumper harvest this season thus I am assured of food security till that is enough for my family till text harvesting season. I also have no stress of paying fees for my school-going children because I have a surplus farm produce to sell an get money for fees.

I expect to have stabilized my chicken business because this is the major project I am currently working hard to establish. I believe it will add me more income once I start selling both eggs and chicken hence it will increase my financial stability.

I have a lot of ease in providing basic need for my family unlike before when I had not boosted my buness.I have three machines for my business

My new goal is to start a goat rearing project, the reason being they multiply very fast and in future, I'm planning to sell them and buy a cow for milk.

I have the confidence and surety of monthly income from Give Directly thus I have been improving my barber shop using my transfers, it now looks more decent, neat and attractive. I also bought two more shaving machines hence, more customers have been attracted to my shop because of the quick service I offer them. I am now happy due to the increase in daily sales that has made me improve my way of living. I can provide for my family with ease and also pay school fees for my school going children with no difficulty unlike before. I really thanks Give Directly for the financial support because I am now financially stable and has made my family socially strong and more united, unlike before when we used to have frequent quarrels due to finances.

I have a plan for opening another barber shop because I have more customer. I know it will do well hence increase in my daily income. The daily sales I receive from it will enable me to buy more goat for rearing. I will be in a position to achieve my dream of buying a dairy cow once I have enough number of goats to sell and buy my dream dairy cow.

Apart from being able to take credits without fear, I can also say that I am able to meet my family needs with much ease. I have the money to pay my children's school fees and even buy them food easily. Previously I had to rely on credits which I could not eve n payback on time. This was so embarrassing to me and my even my children as they could be scolded by those I owed.

In the next four months, I want to start running another business alongside the barber shop, I want to do cereal business to boost my family income. Currently, the income I get from the barber shop is just enough to feed my family, but not comfortably the way I would want it. With the additional business, most of the needs I will be able to meet with much ease.

I used to get this question most of the time I went to take something on credit from a shop, ''Collins, where will you get the money to repay me?_ I wish you could have gotten that cash now that you want to take my good on credit promising to pay back. This was common because I did not have a reliable source of income and nobody could trust me with debt. The biggest daily difference is the trust I have gained from friends let alone my debtors. The fact that GiveDirectly sends me money every month gives me that confidence and knowing that I will repay on time makes me have a peace of mind.

In the next six months, I am hopeful that my savings and family income shall have grown. This because of the extra hair clipper I have bought enabling me to serve more customers in my barbershop and even the goal of opening up the cereal business will make my life change for the better as I shall have expanded my markets.

I have a goat which marks the first step of investment for my family,. This marks a big change in my family and my life and makes me very happy cause I know I will not beg anymore.

I would want to start a business to boos my income so that I can build a better house.

I have a goat of my own. At least I can go herding like the rest of our villagers. I also paid school fees for my children to clear the debt I carried forward from last year.

Apart from my earlier set goals, I do not have any new goal.
