My additional goal is to complete constructing a house so that I would have a good shelter for my family. My next transfers I would spend to fix doors and windows so that it would be ready for occupancy.

In the last four months, I spent part of my transfers to purchase building materials for house construction. I had not built a house of my own back at home. With the money which I have been receiving I have been able to buy iron sheets and timber which I used to construct a semi-permanent house. Now I am happy with the progress which I have made so far. Though I haven't completed, I can say that Give Directly has helped me to reach where I am. I am left with fixing windows and doors which I am planning to do it with my next transfers.

My vision is to venture into poultry farming. After I completed constructing the house that would be my next step. I intend to start rearing chicken so that I would sell eggs to enable me to gather for my family basic needs. Chicken is easy to keep and eggs are on high demand at the local market. This would earn me some good income and safe me from tedious casual jobs which are not reliable sometimes.

My life is currently different from how it was four months ago in that I no longer spend much to buy food like I used to do before but rather sell the surplus from what I produce from my own farm to earn an income.

I do not have a new goal for the next four months I only intend to expand the acres of land for farming because this will lead to more food for the family.

The biggest difference in my daily life in the last four months preceding the current transfer is that I have enough food for the family I no longer buy from the market which was so costly for me. I used to do casual jobs in the village and the amount of money I could get was not enough to gather for the basic needs and also farm inputs. After I started to received the transfer from GiveDirectly I started in a small way to invest in farming. Right now I'm in a position to pay workers to cultivate my farm and even buy fertilizers and seeds for planting. I also do plant at the right season I no longer delay and this has led to good production. My family has enough food to eat and I can sell the surplus at the market to meet other basic needs. I'm so much grateful for the support.

I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I will have saved enough money from the sales of my farm produce to buy goats. This has always been my dream and I know I will achieve it.

Before I started receiving the transfers from Givedirectly, I used to do very little farming, only a small garden which produced barely enough for us. Right now, I have leased two separate pieces of land which I am currently farming on. The produce from these farms will ensure we have a whole year's supply of food and the usual daily expenditures can be put to use on other sectors.

I am planning to buy a dairy cow for rearing in the next few months. The milk that the cow will produce will, in my plan, l reduce the expenditure that usually goes to buying our daily milk. The extra milk from what we use at home will be sold and will be an extra source of income. This will also be an additional assets to what I own.

The biggest difference in my daily life is that I am able to provide my children with enougj and healthy food. Before we started receiving the transfer, it was sometimes hard to have money to buy enough food for my family. In most cases, we would just settle on snacks or remains of food, which is mostly not recommended for young children. Right now, I am glad my children can eat well and have enough.

My expectation in the near future is to be financially stable. I want to be in a position where I can look after my children and well be abke to orovide all their needs. I also expect to buy a piece of land of my own since I don't want to solely depend on my ancentral land since its getting overstretched every passing time. I want to generally ensure that our lifestyle is improved and live a more comfortable life more than we are now.

I have a feeling that my family is happy about the projects i am doing.

I have an aim of buying several goats that i will sell in future to get more more money.

Since i am a casual worker i get less pay hence when i got the transfer i was able to even to buy a goat for my family that will not have been bought if not the transfer.

I am planning to pay secondary school fees for my child that will join in the beginning of the year.

I am planning to buy and rear sheep in a big number so that i will sell them at a later date for a profit and an income.

My life is currently different in that i was able to buy some chicken that i never thought i could buy and that i was able to clear the fee balances without having to really struggle.

I expect to have improved my family's lifestyle and i will have increased the flock of my sheep and wealth too.

Nothing much has changed in my daily life, i am just glad for the help that Givedirectly is giving us.
