Andrew received a $25 tenth payment.
"I look forward to venturing into agribusiness with the support of cash transfers. I plan to focus on raising cows and goats, which can provide a sustainable source of income for our family. Furthermore, the cows can also assist with plowing services, which will be beneficial for our farming activities. Additionally, during the rainy season, I intend to grow vegetables such as kale and tomatoes to sell. Having a diverse agricultural enterprise can help me generate more income and improve our financial situation."

Mwenda received a $25 eighteenth payment.
"I would love to establish an income stream by engaging in livestock rearing, specifically goats and cows. Currently, I rely on seeking assistance from friends or working on other people's farms during times of financial difficulty. However, this has not proven to be convenient. With the two goats I currently have, I plan to continue saving through the merry-go-round club to accumulate enough money to expand my livestock venture. This will build sustainable wealth for my family and reduce our reliance on external support."

"My ultimate goal is to purchase a dairy cow. Although I have already embarked on livestock keeping by raising goats, I have always aspired to acquire a cow that can efficiently provide milk for my family without incurring the expense of purchasing it. To make this dream a reality, I have devised a plan to save at least $10 from my monthly transfers. By setting aside this amount, I aim to accumulate enough funds to buy a dairy cow by the beginning of next year, thereby fulfilling my objective of establishing a sustainable source of milk for my household."

"Was in the centre, I felt very good and I even danced to the lord and to be very sure I had to check on the account to confirm the message and I found out it was true the money had come. The first thought was to get land in a safe place , which I didn't do immediately because of the fear that some people would just stage the land since there was demand , so I decided to buy a cow to keep in my money as I look for a peace of land from the right person and will sale off the cow and pay the land"
