"I would be happy and relieved because I go the mountains to get grass for my roof, so when I receive this money I will use it to buy iron sheets, then buy food so that it takes us through this season until we harvest again."

"The thing that took a huge chunk of my transfer were goats, which cost a total of KES15000. I decided on getting the goats because I was tired of getting up early every morning and going to the forest to look for trees to cut down in order to burn charcoal which has been my only source of income even though very unreliable because charcoal takes time to be ready and yet my children need food. It was very hard and stressful for me, therefore, getting these goats is a substitute for my charcoal-burning business. I no longer have to worry about getting up early and yet not knowing where food will come from. I also spent KES2500 and KES2280 in buying school uniforms and fees for my five children respectively, because it is my joy knowing that my children are in school and I can depend on them in the future."

""I'm firstly happy to hear that I'm receiving cash. Receiving this cash I'm firstly going to send my children back to school and rebuild my house, if there's any change left will save it and start a business"."

"I felt so happy when I got the money because I didn't expect to get that amount so easily. It was a good thing and I am so grateful."

"I felt so grateful the moment I received the money because that was a chance and ability to address the challenges I was facing and get the things I only used to desire by heart. I desired to have goats, settle my childrens' school fees arrears and get a bed, therefore when I received the money I was so grateful since I was going to get all those things done."

""The plan I have for this cash transfer when receive it is, to build zinc house because we are in the bush doesn't mean that we should continue living in mat house. Furthermore, to send my children to school with the remaining money.""

""My greatest hardship is my farm work I don't relast anything from it because every year I make farm wild animals will destroyed everything,So because of this reason my family and I is really facing hardship, And this is the only means I have to support my family ""

""The hardship am faced with right now is lacked of support, Because my husband is not doing anything so am the only person taking care of the family responsibilities""

""Money business is very hard that to even get food for my son is difficult. At times he lives only on breast feeling. ""

"My plan for the cash transfer is to pay my children's school fees and build a house for myself as i now stay in my brother's house."
