In the next four months, I will continue to pay school fees for my child. I will also invest some of the money on farming. I am going to be spending part of the money on seeds and farm inputs to make my farm more productive.

The biggest difference in my daily life in the last four months is that I have constantly been able to pay school fees for my child. I am assured and am happy because I know that the transfers will be able to pay for her school fees until she complete her education. I am so happy that GiveDireclty is enabling me to send her to school without having to sell the cattle I keep for my family survival.

In the next six months, I will have established a tea nursery . I intend to plant them on my farm. This has been informed by the construction of a factory in a nearby village. The factory has now been completed and is already processing tea. I want to be part of the people supplying the crop in order to also benefit. In the next six months, I will be having tea seedlings already in the next six months.

I do not have any new goal at the moment since I want to concentrate on paying school fees for my children. This will enable them to always have enough time for their studies since they will not be sent back home.

The last four months was a season where I had to buy everything for my family. My transfers came in handy as it enabled me to meet all our needs on time. I am proud of this because my family was always fed well and lacked nothing despite the hard economy in my region.

I expect that my life will have changed in the next six months. First, I believe that I will have finished paying school fees for my children who are in their primary level of education. Also, I believe that I will have paid a third of this years school fees for my daughter who joined secondary school this year. This will enable them to have enough time for their studies and am optimistic that their grades will improve.

My family life is better than it was four months ago. Currently, there is plenty of food from the crops and also that I can buy using part of the transfers. I am so grateful that my children are healthier and happier. Food is no longer my worry, I am now doing more in school fee payment.

My goal is to expand the scale of land in which I cultivate potatoes and beans. I will use the transfers to buy more seeds and farm chemicals to raise more of the crops for more produce.

The biggest difference in my daily life is the ability to farm more effectively. I have been using part of the money to buy farm inputs to grow potatoes and to protect them on the farm. I have well-perfoming farm because I don't lack the money to use in production. I am about to harvest the crop that did so well and I look forward to a good harvest. The income from the crop will help me in serving my family.

I expect my life to have changed in the next six months since I will be a better farmer. I expect to hav put more land under potatoes and beans to earn more income from it. I am grateful to GiveDirectly.

The biggest difference in my daily life in the last four months preceding the current transfer is that I have cleared all the fee balances for my two children who are at a nearby private primary school. Accordingly, I am more confident that they have ample time for studying. This makes me happy as a parent because I used to feel embarrassed when my children were sent home to fetch arrears.

My new goal in the next four months is to buy hybrid seed and fertilizers to use on my farm. I have experience in farming where I have used improved farming methods such as fertilizers and hybrid seeds which have given me a good harvest to help me sustain my family needs by selling a surplus harvest to raise money for other financial needs.

I spent part of my transfer to purchase iron sheets and other building materials. We have been living in a leaking grass thatched house for a while now. My dream of building another one went into vain because of lack of money. All the money I got from selling little milk from my dairy cow usually goes to paying school fees for my children and buying food. I also purchased maize using some part of the transfer.

In the next six months, I expect my life to be much better. This is because I will be enjoying higher income from the sale of the farm products (potatoes and cabbages) that I will have planted and harvested from the leased farm. Besides, I will have completed planting tea in my farm. Thus, I will be more confident with regards to supporting my children as they pursue their studies. I will be having reliable sources of sufficient funds to be used in paying school fees and financing other necessary projects.

My life currently is different since I have been able to pay school fees for my child and also buy farm inputs without so much struggle.

The new goal I now have is to start poultry keeping.

The biggest difference in my daily life is happiness.

I expect my life to change in that I will have started poultry keeping.

I would like to set up a poultry project.They are the cheapest source of income and require little capital to start with. Chicken also multiply faster. I will save the proceeds from this project in the long run in order to buy a cow.

I am stress free and happier the transfer has helped me to focus on other major project. My family has there household requirements well taken care of by these money.

I hope my poultry project will be up and running. I also looking at improving my garden, at the moment we work on it for subsistence production. I believe I can earn good income once I improve my farm. My living standard too will be better six months from now.

My children are happier I am also a bit relaxed because they have not been send home for lack of school fees or uniform. They were send out of school always for not paying activity fees.
