"School fees has been a big burden for me.Receiving this money will therefore be a big relief for me since I will clear secondary school fees arrears for my two children.The arrears add up to Ksh 12,000.I have also not paid this terms fees.This money will help me clear.When my children will be in school my mind will be at peace to enable me continue with a little business.The remaining money will play a big part in boosting my timber business.I buy trees which I get timber from them then sell to those constructing houses or making furniture.The profit I get from this business will help me pay school fees in the coming years."

"It's one year now since I started a family and settling has taken a lot of time.Now that I am settled I need to expand my farming activities.Livestock farming seems a good venture for me.The money that I will receive will make me start off by buying one dairy cow which will cost me approximately Ksh 35,000.The milk will not only save me the cost of buying milk for consumption but also earn me some money through sale of the milk.I will also expand my poultry unit.I have only six chicken and my target is adding that number to 40.This means that I also have to do construction of the structures required."

"Imagine a community without access to clean and safe water for drinking. Most people in my community are dependent on open water pans to draw water for domestic purposes including livestock and household consumption. In a community with rampant behaviour of human open defecation, these water pans are contaminated and a safe haven for all manner of bacterial infections. Though I may have some stored rain water in my house at the moment, my biggest worry is an imminent drought season which may force me to draw the same contaminated water for household use and consumption. Though equipped with information about the danger lurking in these water pans, I live a life of fear knowing my family is not free and safe. "

"My expectation in the next six months is to expand my business. Since I live here, I know almost all the needs that my community have if not all. I am working hard to ensure that I bring all these items because its the only way that I will attract more customers. I wish I could get everything they need so that they will not lack anything that they want."

"I expect to buy decent clothes for my children in the next six months. I feel they walk naked because they wear old torn and shuttered clothes that lowers their self-esteem and dignity. I am looking forward to changing their living standards."

"I expect that in the next six months I shall have invested more time and resources to invest more time and resources in raising livestock and chicken in small scall. In envision making more income through selling their by-products such as milk and eggs. With, the doubled income I shall have ease in meeting most of my family's needs. At the same time, enrolled in two more saving table banking groups because I have learnt the importance of saving."

"My life is different in that, I have constructed an iron roofed house that is left with fitting the windows. Once my house is complete, I will be relieved from the leaking grass thatched hut that I currently stay in."

"Before receiving this transfers, I had started constructed my semi permanent house that was not plastered and had no windows because I didn't have enough money to buy Windows. Upon recieving my transfers, I was in position to plaster, cement the floor, fit metallic windows, door and put a ceiling in my house. "

"Through this finacial support, I was able to cater for the treatment and burial expenses of my mother-in-law. Secondly, I have got additional piece of land that is going to boost my crop production. Previously, my family had 2 pieces of land that could not produce enough yields to support the family needs and I would have incurred debts to cater for the burial expenses of my mother-in-law, had I not recieved this cash transfer."

"Prior to receiving these cash transfers, I had constructed my semi permanent house that was getting weakened by rains because the wall was made of bricks and mud. When I recieved my transfers, I bought construction materials that were used to plaster my house, build the veranda and cement the floor. I am so happy because my house is very clean free from dust and I believe it's going to last for a long period of time because the plaster has made the wall very strong. In addition, I have owned an ox that is going to help me plough my farm land."
