For the last four months, I have been able to enjoy the comfort of cooking in a more convenient and comfortable place without any challenges whether it rained or not. This is unlike previously when I was inconvenienced with rains, wind, and sun because I didn't have a kitchen. I'm glad through the GD transfers I was able to construct a kitchen. In addition to that, I'm glad that I have been able to afford a balanced meal for the family through the GD transfers without any challenges.

Currently, my phone is multifunctional making hard to communicate with people. This has made me lose many work opportunities. Therefore, for the next four months, I have an additional goal of saving some money so that I can purchase a new phone.

Previously, I didn't have a kitchen instead, I would cook in the open air and this was so inconveniencing especially whenever it rained , when it was sunny and when it was windy. This forced me to either endure the hardship of both scorching sun or heavy winds or at times I was forced to wait until the rain stopped so that I could cook. I'm happy this not the case anymore because I was able to construct a kitchen with the GD transfers.

In the next six months after purchasing a phone, I have a goal of saving some money so that I can use it to purchase sand and cement which I'll later use to plaster the outside walls of the kitchen. This will save me from the cost of repairing the walls every time after every rainy season since plastering is a long term solution.

My life is currently different from the way it would have been had I not received the transfers in that I no longer cook in the open air anymore. This is because I was able to construct a kitchen with the current transfer. In addition to that, I'm able to save some little money which I can use in cases of emergency.

I recently constructed a kitchen with the previous transfers but I haven't been able to plaster it. For the next four months of my life, I have a new goal of saving some money so that I can use them in future to plaster the kitchen. This will make the kitchen look neat and less dusty.

The biggest difference in my daily life in the last four months preceding the current transfers is that I would say that life has not been as tough as it was in the previous months. This is because I have been able to use the transfers to purchase food for the family and at the same time I have been able to pay for my children's school fees on time.

In the next six moths, I expect to have plastered my kitchen so that I'll be able to cook in a decent and less dusty kitchen. It's only after that when I'll think of something new to work on.

My life currently different from how it was four months in that I eat well and in fact a well balanced my diet. I do no borrow money from my friends so as to carter for food because I plan well with the monthly transfers. Thanks to GiveDirectly.

My new goal is to build a kitchen where I can cook freely, store firewood and the yields which I get from the farm since currently most of this is done in the main house which is squeezed.

The biggest difference in my daily life in the last four months is that I was able to save some amount and channelled it on purchasing iron sheets. I did this because I am aiming at building a kitchen since right now, I cook in the open air which is uncomfortable. whenever it rains we sometimes sleep hungry because I don't have a kitchen where I can prepare the meals or even place firewood to stay dry.

I expect my life to change in the next six months in that, I will have built a kitchen. When this dream come to reality, I will be able to store my grains well. My birds (hens) will have a better place to rest at night and my children will also enjoy sleeping in a spacious place.

My life is currently different from how it was four months ago in that, I am able to plan and buy things like iron sheets which I was not in a position to buy and strive towards my goal like building a kitchen.

My new goal is to construct a kitchen because cooking in an open air is difficult especially during bad weather and having it will also be an advantage because I will also be able to store my farm produce.

The biggest difference in my daily life in the last four months is that, I was able to buy manure easily without borrowing. I did not have money and the only option was to borrow which meant that I had to repay. I thank GiveDirectly very much for the support.

I expect my life to change in the next six months in that, I will have built a kitchen since I do not have any right now and I will also be able to store farm produce easily.

My new goal is to purchase a water tank. Water is problem hence we have to get it from a nearby river which is far and purchasing this presious comodity is more expensive.

My life is currently different from how it would have been if I never received the transfer in that, I could have resorted to taking a loan on manure that I have to use for more produce, I am glad that this time I managed to save ready for its purchase.

I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I will have managed to purchase a water tank hence water would not be a problem anymore.

The biggest difference in my daily life since I started receiving the payments is that, I am not stressed up thinking of how I will get manure for planting because I managed to save part of the money for its purchase.
