"I recently built a small structure that I will use to keep chicken and sheep for future benefits. I have a plan of buying a few birds which I am sure will lay eggs in the unforeseeable future and the population will increase significantly from time to time which will mean that I will have a stable income generating activity even if the transfers are stopped."

"I plan to build a poultry house and buy chicken to keep."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have become self-reliant. I have stopped relying on my husband because I have chicken that lay eggs. I bought the chicken to keep from the transfers. From this project, I collect about 5 eggs per day and selling this I can meet my daily needs easily unlike before when I had to wait for my husband's end month proceeds."

"When Givedirectly came to our village and gave us the transfers, we started a merry go round group where we save some part of the monthly transfers that we receive. When I got my share of the savings, I bought a sheep for rearing. Sheep reproduce fast and in the near future, I will have a number of them, I will be able to sell and buy a cow. I also rear chicken which I bought using the transfers which produce eggs. I sell these eggs and the proceeds also enables us buy other stuff that we need. I am so happy I have assets that I can call my own, and I am empowered."

"My farming has greatly improved. My level of income that comes from farming has almost tripled. I started to buy chicken every month that has increased my brood to about 20. I also use the proceeds from the grocery business that I started using initial transfers. All these sources have increased my monthly earnings. Another big difference is having money to use in meeting my daily needs. I use apart of the transfers to buy foodstuffs for the household. This is easier than before when I had to rely on casual jobs which were at times no available. I always know that my family will never lack food like it used to happen whenever I missed a day's casual work."

"My new goal is to start poultry farming. I have always desired to do this because due to my illness which I have been suffering from for long I will be able to do it. Due to my low income, It has always been just a dream. Now that I get monthly income from GiveDirecly I will invest in poultry farming support. I would like to buy chicken so that I can have a sustainable income through the sale of eggs. From this, I can sell the chicken and eggs to raise money for other financial needs without having to depend on others."

"My new goal in the next four months is to purchase more chickens. I will use the transfers buy purchasing at least 3 chickens every month."

"My new goal in the next four months is to start poultry farming. I will facilitate this goal by using transfers. I will be buying four chickens every month."

"In the next four months I want to struggle enough to be able to save enough money through merry go round. When I get the money from the merry go round in the next four months I want to start poultry keeping. I will use the money to build a poultry house and buy chicken for rearing. This shall be a great step towards being self reliant."

"My life is different in that I have been able to build a poultry house and increase the number of chicken that I keep. The proceeds from the eggs have helped us meet most of the basic needs without having to struggle as much as we used to do in the last four months."
