Richard
received a $254 initial payment.
"In my life the biggest daily difference is having my own cow. Some of my neighbours would refuse to give us milk, because most of them took money from milk vendors in advance. I remember sometimes will wait for a whole morning without milk only to end up taking strong tea. We have plenty at the moment and even sell for other house hold needs."

Rebecca
received a $473 initial payment.
"When I received my first transfers, I paid off the mortgage amount that I had borrowed for feeding the household. I bought a cow as a future saving for the household. To add on that, our living conditions have been horrible and I decided to purchase a bed, a mattress and other household utensils. The balance of the money I used for feeding the family."
