Philip
received a $312 third payment.
"In the coming years and beyond, my primary goal is to persist in expanding my cow herd. I foresee a promising future in this endeavor. Beyond aiding us in meeting educational expenses, it will also serve as a source of income during our later years, allowing my spouse and me to retire from the demanding task of charcoal burning. This shift towards cattle rearing carries the potential for greater financial security and a more comfortable retirement."

"The plan I have for the transfers is to purchase food, I will purchase three bags of maize at $30 each, a half a bag of maize and also a few clothes. For the remaining amount I would also renovate my house using iron frames at about $70. For the second and third transfers I plan to purchase 1 cow at $200 and 4 goats at $35 each. For the remaining amount I intend to pay school fees for my grandchild who is joining pre-primary. In addition to this I also plan to purchase 4 sheep at $30 each. With the transfers I believe I will be able to change my life positively."

Kadzo
received a $368 second payment.
"If I manage to secure some funds, my sole aspiration revolves around acquiring a dairy cow. With diligent care and unwavering commitment, I envision the cow becoming a source of sustenance and prosperity for my family. Through selling the milk produced, a stream of income would trickle into our lives, providing a steady flow to cater to our hunger, clothe our bodies, and light the path toward education and brighter days."

Sidi
received a $368 second payment.
"I now want to begin investing in livestock, mainly goat farming. I realize it will take some time because I don't have a clear source of income, but with perseverance and good money management, I can succeed in the charcoal-selling business. I wish I could start with a cow, but that is not going to be doable. As a result, investing in goats will result in me purchasing a cow. I would want to start the investment as soon as possible once I get some money."
