"My main objective for the money I would receive this year is to start a chicken farming business that will help me provide for my family. Additionally, I intend to utilize this money to assist my parents in covering the tuition costs for my eight siblings. Since they already struggle to make ends meet, they will require financial assistance"

"This year, I want to use the money to buy myself a few farm animals as an investment in my future. I want to make investments in goats and chickens so that someday they can help me out financially when the program is through. Nutrition is unquestionably my second concern, as we are currently undergoing a famine that has caused us to starve . Since my health has been declining over the years, I also intend to use the money to take care of myself."

"As I previously stated, my objective for this year is to invest in my farm by purchasing a few farm animals, especially goats and chickens because they are less expensive. Due to the ongoing difficulty with nutrition, I also plan to utilize the funds for it."

"With this money I would improve my house and buying a mattress and blankets. I will also invest in livestock like goats and chicken to sell later when I need arises since I only have a dog currently. I'd also buy a bicycle to easy my transportation."

"I invested a larger part of the transfers in boosting my livestock rearing. This is because I had desired to improve it to be more stable to support our needs without much struggle. I spent $ 325 to purchase one cow, three goats, 2 turkeys, and 8 chickens. This is a long-term investment for the family that will help us whenever face a financial crisis in the future. Similarly, I bought various veterinary medicine for the livestock for treatment when they get diseases. In addition, I intend to use the remaining amount to acquire food and clothing for my wife and children."

"2019 marked the end of my secondary education, but because of the poverty in our home, I was unable to continue on to a university. My mother, who is the only parent I have, makes money by selling vegetables. She only makes a maximum of $2 per day, which is insufficient to support the needs of the family. She is the sole source of income for my two siblings, one of whom is in secondary school and the other in primary school. My mother occasionally feels overburdened by the enormous amount of bills she has to pay. So I spent $15 on food when I got my transfer in January. The fact that we had plenty to eat after making the purchase helped my mother feel less stressed. I used the remaining money to buy five hens. I want to raise and sell chickens. By doing so, I will have a source of income that I can use to support my family."

"In an effort to build up enough resources to support me in completing a waiting project, I saved $30 from the previous three transfers. In addition, with a little help from my spouse, I spent another $36 for a sheep and three chickens for raising. I used the remaining money to buy food for my family throughout the holiday season, and to settle some debts at our neighborhood mall that we had purchased on credit."

"In order to save money for the building of a new house, I joined a savings group. I have been saving money for the last three months, and when my shares are earned, I will use them to buy the supplies I need to build a nicer house. In addition, I spent $36 on my child's education and $6 on a chicken that I would raise. I bought food for my family with the $24 I had left over. Being the primary breadwinner in my family, I am appreciative of the transfers because they have allowed me to avoid going bankrupt."

"I am unable to participate in the majority of the available economic activities in our area due to my advanced age. The most frequent one is charcoal burning for sale, which I have done for most of my life. Unfortunately, as the years pass, I become less and less able to cut wood logs for charcoal. In addition, my spouse passed away a few years ago, and I have had to rely on myself ever since. I consider myself lucky to have been accepted into the program because I haven't worked as much in the charcoal sector as I formerly did since then. The majority of my monthly income goes toward paying for my meals, but with the help of the most recent transfers, I was able to spend $84 on enough food to last me for a while. When I was ill, I used $10 to cover my medical costs and spent $8 to purchase three chickens to raise."

"I recently received a transfer, and at the time, my four elementary-aged children were returning to school for the start of a new school year. I therefore spent $40 at school for the coming year's costs. I spent $20 on four chickens that I am raising with the intention of selling some of them in the future in order to increase my household's income. In addition, I spent an additional $42 on food that would last us for a while. Since my spouse passed away three years ago, I have been taking care of our four children's needs. We could not survive on the $30 a month I make as a waitress, therefore I consider myself fortunate to be a part of the program."
