"I bought a solar lighting kit months back which has brought a very huge difference in my life withing the months that I have had it. Our house is now well lit and my children who will sit for their national examinations this term can now read for longer hours and with a lot of ease. I also bought chickens that I can later benefit from when they reproduce well enough to be sold."

"When I received my recent transfer, I took some amount and used it to buy building materials which majorly included timber, iron sheets, nails, windows, doors and also paid a mason who would be involved in the building of a house for my family. I settled on building a bigger house for my family since I was living in a one-room house which could not accommodate us comfortably. My children used to sleep at their grandmother's place. I used the remaining amount to start a poultry keeping project by buying some chicken and building a chicken coop since I did not have any. I decided to start a poultry keeping project so that it will act as my source of income. I preferred this project since it can be easily managed alongside other projects. Also, I bought some home clothes for my family and new school uniforms for my children to replace the old ones which were worn out."

"My new goal for the next four months is to buy a dairy cow. My family will not only get milk for consumption but I will also be selling at our nearby shopping center and use the money I will be getting to cater to my family's needs. Since I do not have a stable source of income, I am planning to improve my poultry keeping project by buying more chicken as my future investment. This will help me to earn more income to use in supporting my family."

"When I received my first transfer, I spent part of it to buy a dairy cow. When it reproduces, my family will not be buying milk from our neighbors anymore. As a way of starting a poultry keeping project, I spent some amount to buy some chicken, wire mesh and nails to use in building a chicken coop. My wife will be running this project alongside other projects. I used the remaining amount to buy food and home clothes for my family and I also bought school uniforms for my children."

"My additional goal is to add one more heifer to the two that I already have. With the earnings which I will be receiving from my business put together with the transfers which I will be receiving from Give Directly would enable me to buy one in the next two months. I am happy that I got to earn a reasonable amount from my business which helps me taking care of my daily expenditure. We no longer spend much daily because some we at times eat the eggs or the chicken."

"My main goal is to add more chicken to my poultry farm. I only have ten at the moment but I am targeting twenty by the end of this transfer. I decided to do this business because it is easy to manage since it doesn't require much attention compared to other farming options. Food is also readily available within the homestead. We can either eat eggs or the chicken on days that we might not afford to buy food."

"I have my own house but have no furniture in it at all. This forces me to sit on the bed while reading which is quite uncomfortable therefore, I would want to buy seats and at least one table to assist during revision. I also want to start investing part of these transfers as early as now in poultry farming. Chickens are very easy to maintain and will not require much of my attention or affect my studies hence the reason to settle for that kind of project."

"My new goal is to buy a wire mesh to make my poultry a free-range system. I intend to buy about 10 pieces, one every month. This will boost mu production as the chicken will have more space to live healthier and happier. I will also get more room for more chicken."

"Receiving this money means that I will invest in to animal production and management. I currently rear goast , cows and chicken but they are few hence not fetching enough money to maintain the family. I will buy more chicken and goasts with the transfers. This will be a source of earning once they multiple in future."

"I do not have any new or additional goal for the next four months since I want to expand my poultry keeping project. I am aiming at having a hundred chicken by next year March. I will be saving the income from this project and later use it to buy myself a plot."
