"I have aspirations to build a new house. The current structure is old and deteriorating, with damaged poles and walls that are on the verge of collapsing. I want a new house with mud walls and at least three rooms, which would significantly improve our living conditions. Also, I aim to start a kiosk business in the future. This venture would serve as a reliable source of income, supporting my efforts to provide for my three children. I believe that a business would offer more stability and guaranteed income compared to the casual jobs I currently undertake, such as making charcoal."

"My primary objective is to focus on goat rearing. Utilizing the previous cash transfers, I have already begun building my goat herd. These goats have proven to be invaluable assets, particularly during emergencies like when my son was injured. In that situation, I sold some of the goats to finance his medical expenses promptly. This experience has inspired my commitment to livestock rearing, as it provides me with a reliable source of funds in times of need."

"My primary goal is to ensure the education of all ten of my children. Currently, only three of them are enrolled in primary school, and they began their education journey when I started receiving the cash transfers. Before this, the income generated from charcoal making by both their father and me was insufficient to support the educational needs of all our children. I am determined to utilize livestock keeping as a means to address the financial requirements of my children's education. To kickstart this initiative, I have already purchased one goat. I plan to expand this endeavor and save additional funds to enroll the remaining seven children in school so that none of them are left behind."

"I aspire to purchase a new mattress. The current one has served me for many years, but it has deteriorated over time, leading to discomfort during sleep. Investing in a new mattress will provide me with a comfortable resting space at night. Besides that, I intend to continue my mission of acquiring goats. With the support of the transfers, I now own six goats, and I am determined to expand my herd further. Given my advancing age and chest complications, engaging in active work may become increasingly challenging. However, I firmly believe that I can accumulate sufficient wealth through goat rearing. Even after the transfers cease, I can rely on selling goats to meet my needs, including medical expenses. This will not only reduce my dependence on my son but also allow him to provide for his children without additional burden."

"I plan to start saving through a merry-go-round club to accumulate funds to purchase additional livestock, such as goats or cattle. As a widow with no other source of income, I see livestock rearing as the most viable option for securing a steady stream of income. I am committed to continuing this momentum of buying and rearing livestock, as it has proven effective in fulfilling my children's educational needs and reducing their reliance on their elder brother. With both of my children still in secondary school, I anticipate that selling these animals in the future will provide me with the means to continue supporting their education."

"My priority is to purchase a mattress for my three children, who have been sleeping on a plan leave woven mat that needs frequent replacement. I believe we can provide them with a more durable sleeping solution that will last for several years with the mattress. Following this, I plan to continue investing in livestock such as chickens and goats. As these animals reproduce, I can sell them to generate additional funds to support my children's education, thereby alleviating the financial burden on my husband, who works tirelessly as a fisherman."

"My house is very old, with the poles starting to decay, and I fear they may collapse soon. Therefore, by the time the transfers come to an end, I aim to repair the walls of the house to reinforce its foundation and make it more durable. Since I am not actively employed and do not wish to burden my son beyond his means, I plan to save some funds from the cash transfers to purchase the necessary building materials."

"My goal has been to improve my living standard by building a new iron-roofed house and buying new bedding to ensure that I have a comfortable and healthy shelter in my old age. I have already built the house and recently bought a new wooden bed to replace the old traditional one. My plan is to save a portion of my transfers to purchase a new mattress and replace the old mats that I am currently sleeping on. Once I acquire the new mattress, I plan to also buy livestock, especially goats, which are valuable assets that I can sell to settle my financial needs. I currently own one goat, and my goal is to buy more in the coming years and build a herd."

"Last month, as the heavy rains began, an unfortunate event unfolded when strong winds tore off the roof of our house. Given my mother's deteriorating health, she was unable to address the situation. Consequently, I found myself sleeping outdoors under the shelter of a tree, enduring the cold and chilly weather during the night.  Thankfully, my mother intends to utilize our upcoming transfers to repair the roof of our house, providing us with a more comfortable living space. The financial assistance we receive has significantly improved both our lives, and we are grateful for its positive impact."

"My primary objective with my upcoming transfers is to invest in additional livestock. Currently, my three grandchildren are enrolled in primary school, and I recognize that there is a long journey ahead in terms of their education. By acquiring more goats, I aim to establish a reliable income stream that will support their educational endeavors, potentially even funding their university education in the future. The financial support I am receiving brings me immense satisfaction, as it enables me to lay a strong foundation for the future well-being of my family."
