"I am growing old and still have dependant who looks up on me thus I have to work hard to meet their needs. I primarily depend on mixed farming for my family needs. Receiving this money to me means added assets, better diet food and extra income. I am planning to buy livestock to add to my herd thus will have more milk for both family consumption and sales. I will also have calves that will always be my financial security."

"I was raised up by a single dad after he separated with my mother. I am the first born of the 4 siblings I have. I was 15 years old when my mother left and I had to do all the house hold chores by myself. I was always late for school since I had to prepare my younger siblings for school and leave the house when food was ready for them. This really affected my studies. Sometimes I skipped school because I always received punishment for being late. This was the biggest hardship in my life."

"I have been buying milk for my children since when I established this household and I would like to purchase a good dairy cow so that we can obtain milk easily. Currently I buy the milk at USD 0.50 daily for one litre which is quite expensive for us since I do not have a job or good business. Sometimes when we cannot afford our nutrition as a family detororiates."
