"The biggest hardship that I am faced with is feeding. I don't have food in the house to feed my family because I have no where to cultivate. I don't have my own land. All I do is to borrow and what I get is not usually enough for me to cultivate as expected. I do casual labour majorly to survive. I have always livers like this. "

"Iam a widow left behind with 6 orphans and it's quiet challenging to meet their demands, besides I do not have land. This money I will spend on buying land for farming. I will be carrying out crop farming inorder to improve on crop production in the family. Once There is increase production , feeding , educating and provision of other basic needs will be easier."

"Receiving this money means I will be able to buy a cow as well as keep some chicken.Having young children requires that one has a source of milk to substitute their diet.I have not been able to buy one because of lack of money and these transfers have provided me that opportunity to actualize it.I will also build a poultry house and then buy some chicken and through sale of eggs be able to provide the daily needs of my family"

"My life will have changed in the next six months in that I will not be buying milk anymore. This is because my heifer will have reproduced. Also, I will have planted some livestock feeds so that my livestock will be having enough feeds throughout the year especially during the dry season. I will have also finished building a kitchen for my family. As a result of this, my wifes items will always be secure since she will not have to take them outside at night anymore."

"with the plans that we have of plastering the rest of our house, I hope that in the next six months, we will be living in a much better environment. Plastering the entire house will make it look more decent and easy to maintain, therefore, we will not have to constantly worry about smearing to keep it in good shape."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have built a better and spacious kitchen for my family. Before I used to have a small grass-thatched kitchen for cooking. There was a big problem because it was leaking from the inside and cooking was a problem especially during the rainy season. My children used to sleep in the same house and they were exposed to cold. I remember the could complain so much and because I was doing casual jobs and the money that I get from that was not enough for me to buy building materials to build a new house for them. I could not welcome visitors to my house because it was not decent but currently I have a good house and I don't fear to welcome visitors anymore. My children also have a good place to sleep and do their assignment. We are so grateful because our living standard has improved."

"I believe in the next six months, I will be having a stable business hence a stable source of income. I will be in a position to take care of my children with a lot of ease."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have bought a dairy cow. I used to buy milk from my neighbors and it was so costly for me. I do casual in the village and the amount of money I get from this is not enough to gather for all the basic needs of the family. Sometimes we could miss getting casual jobs and my family had to go without milk and breakfast and this was so demoralizing especially when we had visitors in our home. Currently, I have enough milk for my family and I sell the surplus at the market to earn an income to meet other basic needs and also save some amount to pay school fees for my children in primary school. I have devoted most of my time to work on my farm and this has resulted in a good harvest. I am so much grateful for the support from GiveDictely it has changed our living standard."

"After completion of the construction of a new house in our household, we have decided to pull together our finances so that we may purchase a piece of land. All my family members have come to this agreement after consideration that the available piece of land in our household is too small to be shared amongst all of us. We have opened an account where we will be depositing an equal amount of money after every two weeks and by the end of six months, we will have raised enough money to purchase a piece of land. We have already started the contribution and soon we'll start searching for a piece of land on sale. I expect this project to run smoothly and by the end of the six months, we expect to have gotten ready to purchase that piece of land."

"With the current plans to construct a fishpond and initiation of fish farming, I expect the project to have started in the next six months."
