"Our first plan is to use part of the transfer to plaster the walls and floor of our house. Secondly, we intend to use another part of the transfer to buy a cow, that would provide us with milk for family use. Lastly, we plan to use the remaining amount to plough our farms and buy seeds, which we plan to plant in the farms."

Linet
received a $98 initial payment.
"I'm planning to spend my upcoming cash transfer on building a house because my current roof is too rusty and leaks more than a grass thatched house does. I will also pay school fees for my children and buy a cow that I can milk and benefit from its dairy products."

Grace
received a $98 initial payment.
"I'm planning to spend my upcoming cash transfer on buying a cow. I have HIV virus and I'm always advised at the hospital to eat balanced diet. So I will buy a cow that I can milk and drink milk for me to be healthy. I will also build a house because the one I'm currently staying in is leaking and is too small to accommodate all my family members. "
