In the next four months, I plan to save my transfers to assist me with the expenses that I will possibly incur while joining college come September this year. I would wish to ease my parent's burden by supporting them as much as it is solemnly their responsibility to take me to school.

The biggest difference in the last four months in my daily life is that I have been able to establish my business. I did finish my O levels last year and decided to venture into poultry keeping. With the transfers I received, I did build a poultry house, bought drinkers and feeders, and managed to get a few birds to start with. I am looking forward to growing the business as I continue receiving transfers for it will help me raise revenue for other developments and expenditures as well.

In the next six months, I will have saved money to facilitate the admission process come September when I will joining college. The poultry project will have grown as well and hopefully will be generating some revenue that can support me with the upkeep while in school and also support household expenses for my family. I desire to go to school but also ensure that my parents are not burdened as they also have other responsibilities to take care of besides my schooling.

My new goal is to have my own homestead. We have been living in my parent's compound for a long time now and I felt it was time to move out. I have always wanted to leave but I didn't have enough money to build another house. Once I got the financial aid from Give Directly, the first goal that came to my mind was to establish my home.

The biggest difference is that I was able to pay my school fees without fail and I attended all classes which made me see a major performance improvement. This was not the case before the transfers. I used to be sent home for school fees every now and then and this really affected my performance since I missed several lessons. I felt bad staying at home while other children attended school. It felt like my dreams were shutting on my face. Today I am glad GD came to my rescue and I did finish school with a nill school fee balance a good result.

I expect to have fully furnished my home in the next six months. I will have completed building the house by then and hopefully saved enough money to buy the necessary furniture to start with. All in all I will have achieved my greatest dream of living in my homestead.

The biggest difference in my daily since I started receiving these transfers is that I have always paid my school fees arrears with my own money. I am no longer sent home as I used to be because I pay my fees arrears on a monthly. GD transfers have changed my story.

Having completed paying my school fees, I can have the opportunity to invest some of the transfers on other investments such as livestock. I have a desire to buy sheep because they are easy to take care of and are quite affordable. Later on, I will sell the sheep to raise enough money to start up a business and even build my own house.

The biggest difference in my daily life since I started receiving these transfers is that I have never been sent home for school fees. In the past, I used to be sent home for school fees arrears. My parents were not financially stable to pay my school fees on time. This is why I used to be sent home regularly. With GD transfers, I have been paying my fees on a monthly basis. I am glad I have cleared for the whole year and I have not been sent home. I am certain that I will excel in my forthcoming exams since I got enough time to concentrate on my studies.

In the next six months, I would have completed my fourth form and will be waiting for my final results. During this time I would start purchasing the building materials to build my own house. Receiving this transfer would empower me to start living a better life which I wouldn't imagine I could afford in that my parent has been struggling to raise us.

The biggest difference is that I am able to attend classes with much ease and no fear of being sent home for school fees. This is because with the recent transfers I have been able to pay my school fees and reduced the huge arrears that I had previously.

In the next six months, I will concentrate on rearing poultry and looking after my livestock that I have managed to purchase with the money I received from GD. This will help me generate more income and even make me more independent.

My life is currently different from how It would have been in that, I do not have to skip school due to lack of school fees like I used to. This will help improve my performances and even enhance my ambitions and morale of studying.

I am looking forward to starting my own business once I complete my high school in a couple of months ahead.
