"For a long time I have envied milk trading business in my community and I have always aspired to venture into this lucrative business. Since I already own a motorcycle, delivering the products to the market would be cheaper. This is an investment I aspire to dedicate my time and first transfer to. With the remaining amount, about KES 25,000, I have a plan to set up a poultry farm and rear a hundred chicken in it. Both of these businesses will enable me build a house of my choice in the near future. Education of my children would definitely be secure too. "

"Four months ago I decided to use the money I received to expand my poultry farming by buying more chickens. I am happy to say that at this particular moment, the project has become bigger than I ever thought it would be and I will soon dispatch the first batch of chickens to give room for the next batch that I will sell in the December festive season. With order I have to supply the chickens, I am pleased that what I will earn from this project will be almost triple what I invested."

"For the next four months, my additional goal in life is to start a poultry keeping project. My wife will be running this project and it will aid us when GiveDirectly will have stopped giving us the financial aid after the duration they promised us. We will be earning an income through the sale of chicken and eggs."

"I expect my life to have changed in the next six months in that I will have planted the tea cuttings in my nursey. I will just be waiting for six months to elapse so that I can transplant them in the field. Having my tea plantation is a long-lasting investment which will help me cater to my family needs on time. In addition to this, I will have started poultry keeping project. Hopefully, I will have finished building a chicken coop."

"My next goal is to do poultry farming. I intend to buy more chickens to the rear and also build a fence to protect them. I will buy a fencing wire mesh using the money in addition to the chickens."

"Receiving this money means that I will be able to buy a cow.I do not have one now and my children require milk in their diet.With the remaining amount,I plan to buy some chicken so I can starta small poultry farm to substitute my income from casual jobs"

"The biggest difference in my daily life is generally happiness. Reason being I have moved closer to completing my project of paultry rearing. As I speak now the chicken house is almost done which I'm sure when I get my lamp sum one it will be complete. Therefore I would like to thank GD for transforming my life and bringing pride to my household."

"The biggest difference in my life is that my chicken are now safe because I was able to build a better poultry house and perimeter wall. Before, I used to loose quite a number of chicken to wild animals and thieves since my compound was not secure enough and I am hopeful that the proceeds from this investment will now improve. I am also glad that I am finally going to start school that I kept postponing for lack of funds."

"Receiving this money means am going to get more capital to improve my poultry farming business. At the moment, I rare a few chickens which I sell when they are mature. Given that crop production is no longer viable due to unreliable climatic conditions, the little income I get from poultry cater for the purchase of food only leaving none for other basic necessities like education and health care. Therefore, these transfers will enable me to expand and venture into other alternative sources of income like rearing goats, which does very also. The remaining part of the transfers will help in meeting the educational needs of the children and other necessities of the household. Achieving all these will bring a positive change in the wellbeing of the family."

"I am a poultry farmer.I have around a hundred chicken.I have always wished that I could expand this venture.However,this has not been possible more especially because I have not been able to build a good poultry house and fence it to restrict the chicken due to lack of money.Sometimes am forced into dispute with my neighbours when they wander into their vegetable farms.Receiving this money means that I will be a ble to buy enough materials to fence,build a modern poultry house and buy some more chicken for rearing"
