My new goal in life is to save some money every month so that I can later use it to build a spacious house for my family. We are currently living in a one-room house and whenever I am at home, I am forced to cook at my inlaw's house since I do not have a kitchen.

The biggest difference in my daily life is that I am now a stress-free person. This is because I have been able to pay my house rent on time and buy enough food using my transfers. Without these transfers, I would be surviving with debts from different people. This is because the money my spouse earns from doing different casual jobs at home is always not enough to cater for my school fees and our bills.

In the next six months, my life will have changed because I will have completed my studies. I am also hoping that I will not be having any loan or rent arrears. Also, I am optimistic that I will have started saving some money that will enable me to build a spacious house for my family. I will be through with my final examinations in the next two months hence this will enable me to start saving some money because I will no longer be living in a rented house.

My life is currently different from how it was four months ago in that I have been able to cater to my family needs without much struggle. Even though I am a farmer, there are other commodities that I had to struggle a lot to buy them daily. I am so happy that currently, I don't have to wait until harvest season to get what to sell to get money. I have been able to buy these commodities on time while having a work-life balance as I no longer have to overwork myself to get money.

Being a farmer, I aim to improve my farming practices. Since I am not able to change my farming at once, my additional goal in life is to start saving some money to use in buying a dairy cow. I am planning to open a Mshwari lock savings account for this saving plan. I believe the soon I buy a cow, the sooner I will be relieved of the cost of buying milk.

The biggest difference in my daily life in the last four months preceding the current transfers is that I have been able to employ modern farming practices. GiveDirectlty transfer has empowered me to acquire enough artificial fertilizer, hybrid seeds and good land preparation in my farming. I have had poor yields in my past due to my old methods of farming. Currently, I am optimistic that I will have a good harvest this year which will last us till the next harvesting season.

In the next six months, I expect to have started my savings plan towards the purchase of a dairy cow. This will be my happiness and hope of realizing my goal. My spouse will be using his transfers on our basic needs as I save mine towards this project.

My life is different in that I have planted my farm on time because of the availability of money to buy seeds. I hope I'll be able to get an improved harvest this season compared to other seasons.

My new goal in the next four months is to be able to save some amount and buy a cow for rearing. This will, in the long run, reproduce and be a source of income.

Previously, it was challenging to raise money for meeting basic needs because I didn't have a reliable source of income. In most cases, I had to spend a lot of time working on people's farm in order to raise money for a single meal. I'm so grateful to for making it easier to meet these needs. I'm at peace and proud of myself because of the fact that I can provide a whole day's meals to my children.

My expectation in the near future is to ensure that we buy a piece of land where we would build home for us. the current piece we are staying in belongs to our parents and it is too small for us to build in. I want a piece of land of my own where I can run different activities without having to worry about overusing someone's land. I generally expect my life and that of my small family to generally improve.

My life currently different from how it was four months ago in that I got a new job. I can now meet the basic needs without depending on the other persons.

My new goals for the next four months is to construct a house for my parents and also my own house.My parents stays in my grandmothers house and there had been conlicts on the same and building them their own house is the best idea.

The biggest difference in my daily life in the last four months preceding the current transfer is that I have gotten the new job as a teacher since I was able to get money to do the applications and even for relocating to the new posted place as a high school teacher. Before this, it was not possible because I could not get the money for relocation. I got a new job as a teacher at Menet secondary school. I used the money I had saved to relocate to that school. And I'm so happy because Because of the transfer. I will use the salary to support my family to build a better house. My family has a small mud house which was belonging to my grandmother and there had been some conflict on the same. I'm so grateful I have gotten a job. My family will have good shelter and food to eat. This could not have been possible without the transfer from the Givedirectly.

I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I would have started a dairy farm to save the cost of buying milk. I would have built a better house for my family.

I am very happy since i am able to provide for my child using the transfer.

I have a plan of starting poultry farming that will help me in my family by providing food i.e eggs.

The transfer helped me to get personal needs that has been hard to get initially.

I am planning to build a new house for my family since i do not have my own house i am still leaving with my parents.

My new goal is to expand the farm that i till in terms of acreage of maize and beans that i grow.

Currently, my life has improved as i am now sure that i will be meeting daily needs .i am hopeful because i receive this transfers regularly for a long time to come.

In the next six months,my life will have improved because i will have become a better farmer.I will also be able to pay school fees easily.

The biggest difference in life is that i am free from worrying about my child's basic needs.i am happy because i know she is happy back at home where i left her and came to study at the university.
