My life is currently different from how it was in the last four. I have been able to exrent the construction of the already exiating house in our household. This has now comfortably accomodate all members of my household since I added two extra rooms- a store and children's room. I am grateful that GiveDirectly have been consistent in sending us the transfers, something which has built our confidence in starting any new project.

Alongside the livestock project I also have a new goal to accumulate some money towards payment of school fees for my two chilren who are soon joining secondary school. This will be possible through a bit by bit saving from the transfer I am receiving and with time I will have rasied a good amount.

Having been receiving the transfers from GD, I have been contemplating on starting a livestock farming and majorly the rearing of goats. Recently I have been able to purchase two of them which I am now keeping in our fields. I chose to start this project since a large part of my piece of land is hilly and pushy; a good place to keep goats. Having done this, I feel it is a great difference in my daily life. I still wish to expand the project to accommodate a bigger number of goats which will later be sold to purchase a cow. Goats 2

My expectation in the next six months is to have raised enough money to take my two sons to the secondary school comes January. The saving process we are starting will make this a possibility since we are planning to make it a routine saving every month.

I no longer have stress since I am assured of monthly payments. My mind is more productive since I always have thoughts that enable me to plan for my future life with that of my family. I Nowadays, I am able to pay school fees for my child who is in secondary school. They are not being sent back home anymore.

In the next four months, my plans are to still add two more goats because these are the animals that I cannot strain managing them. It is also my wish to ensure that they are healthy, therefore, my other goal is to provide treatment for them and always ensure that there are enough feeds for them.

My biggest difference is having goats in my compound. I currently have four of them yet I did not own any in the four months. My joy is that once the transfers are completed, I will still be seeing them and it would not take long before I sell and buy a cow. This means that I will have plenty of milk at my disposal enough for family and also for sale.

In the next six months, and as is the season in our region, I will have harvested the crops that are currently growing. Then I will prepare for the next planting season. My hope is to ensure that I have bought all the farming inputs and prepare the land early enough. I also expect to plant on time and have enough capital to maintain the crops till maturity where I will harvest in plenty. This will ensure that my family have enough and even have more for sale and earn us income.

My life is much more comfortable and with less depressions as compared to before. Nowdays there is easier planning of chores and projets and I am glad my son was able to report to school because of that!

I have always wanted to buy a cow, therfore I am planning to have one soon.

Before we started receiving the transfer, we never had any chairs in our home and this didn't make us comfortable whenever we had people come to our home. Since I bought the chairs with the aid of the tansfer, we don't mind receiving any visitors and we are even more comforatble staying at home ourselves.

I expect that in the next six months, I will be able to pay school fees more comfartable without having to overwork myself. I expect to have more than one source of income so that I am able to take of my family better.

My life currently is different since I now have some sits and cupboard which I did not have before.

The only new goal I now have is to buy a cow.

The biggest difference in my daily life is happiness.

I expect my life to change in that I will have bought a cow.
