I don't have a new goal but just to complete the house by plastering the floor. The new house gives me a good feeling since it is of good quality and standards like those of my neighbors.

The biggest difference in my daily life is in the ability to save money in a merry go round group. I managed to use the money I got from the group to put up a house. I was living in a mud hut that was thatched with grass for a roof. The other house had been borrowed a house that belonged to my late grandfather. Building a better living house made of timber walls makes me proud of my achievement. I am so happy to have a good home using these transfers.

In the next six months, my life will have changed because I will be living in a good house. I will have also started a shop business. I intend to build it near the road on our farm. I will stock the shop using the money I am receiving from GiveDirectly. I will be getting an income from the shop and living in a nice home.

I have 20 chicken at the moment and I always feel good whenever I feed them. I feel proud because it gives me hope for a bright future. I remember I had none some months earlier before Give Directly came into my life. I was so poor to an extent where I could not even afford to buy one chicken. I believe that within a very short time the chicken will start laying eggs. I am planning to sell a few eggs and leave some for them to hatch. My target is having 100 chicken and through that, I know I will never lack anything. I will now be having a stable source of income.

My additional goal is to add more chicken to my poultry farm. I realized chicks are on high demand. People are tired of the eggs from the Grade chicken and yearn for eggs from the traditional chicken. I believe when they start laying eggs I will earn more income which will help me venture into other income-generating activities. This will enable me to comfortably meets my goals and other responsibilities such as pay school fees for my children.

In April we managed to buy a dairy cow. I am so happy to have bought it because I have never owned one before. It has always been my wish to buy one for a long time and I am glad I finally have the courtesy of Give Directly. I was lucky to buy a cow that was almost giving birth. I didn't take long before I started milking it as soon as I had bought it. I feel relieved financially because I do not have to buy milk. This has helped me save more money which I believe will help me start other income generating projects in future.

I know in six months time my chicken will have laid eggs. I have a plan of moving my children to a private school ones the farm start generating good profits. Since I will now have the ability to raise school fees It will be wise for me to also improve the quality of education I give to my kids. I thank Give Directly for giving me the ability to expand the poultry business because this will change my living standards. I will afford to give my family the best because my financial status will have improved.

My farming has greatly improved. My level of income that comes from farming has almost tripled. I started to buy chicken every month that has increased my brood to about 20. I also use the proceeds from the grocery business that I started using initial transfers. All these sources have increased my monthly earnings. Another big difference is having money to use in meeting my daily needs. I use apart of the transfers to buy foodstuffs for the household. This is easier than before when I had to rely on casual jobs which were at times no available. I always know that my family will never lack food like it used to happen whenever I missed a day's casual work.

I plan to buy a piece of land using the next savings I get from my group. We will collect our saving and jointly buy it with my husband.

The biggest difference in my daily life the last four month is the cow I bought using the money I get from GiveDirectly. I used the savings that I received from my merry go round group. My husband also received his savings at the same time as mine. We then jointly bought a dairy cow. I get about 4 liters of milk per day. I sell the milk and use it to pay school fees for my children. I have already bought them school uniforms that have ensured that they learn well. They used to be sent home to get school uniforms which affected their learning because of absenteeism. This has stopped since I have this income from the milk which has then helped me to meet the needs very easily.

My life will change in the next six months because I will be having a piece of land. I will have also expanded my poultry business using a part of the next few transfers to buy some chicken every month.

My life is currently different because these transfers have relieved me of household budget and soon I will buy a dairy cow.

I am planning to expand my vegetable business and buy a dairy cow in order to increase milk production.

The biggest difference in your daily life is the assurance that I will soon buy a dairy cow through monthly merry go round contributions.

I expect to increase farm production by hiring a new piece of land and also open a shop.

I have a new goal to ensure that in some days coming we will be having a cow through a started family joint group where my husband and I will be members and our agenda being that we will be buying one cow after the other all round the family members.

My life is much different now that i own what I never had before a sheep in my family was not existing and I feel that were it not for the Give Directly money then I would not be having one.

I see my program changing not as I expected before but much better. By six months i expect to have added up two more sheep to make three and at least owning one cow in our household.

I have seen myself move a step ahead in that, at the moment I have a sheep which I never had before. This has really brought a great difference in my life and as we talk now I am confident having great hopes and trust that my future is really changing to something better.
