"I expect to have bought a motorbike to ease transportation of goods to the market to cut transportation cost. I believe I will have an additional source of income because I will also use it for taxi business."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I will have saved enough money from the sales of my produce to buy a heifer."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I will use the transfers for savings. My plan is to use the savings to boost the foodstuff business so that I can enhance the profits. The profits will help me provide for my family needs in time and with ease."

"Currently, I have a few goats but from the experience I have with them, they reproduce twice a year. For the next six months, I hope I will have saved enough money for purchasing more goats so that in the future I can sell some of the young ones in order to raise money for purchasing a cow."

"Early on at the beginning of this project, I saved some of my transfers which I wanted to use to buy a heifer which was not possible because I would use some of my savings. To avoid sabotaging my own plans, I decided to buy goats which have now multiplied into six. My plan is to have them grow for a while longer so that I can later sell them off and raise the money required to buy the heifer. I hope that in six months time, I will have the heifer that has always been my greatest desire to own."

"The moment I received the transfer, I felt so happy. GiveDirectly is such a charity that has come to the rescue of many living in poverty."

"My expectation in the next six months is to have bought two extra cows for dowry payment. This dowry has been long overdue and hopefully, in the near future, I would have sorted this out. I am grateful for GiveDirectly for being with me through this process."

"I expect to buy building materials like iron sheets and build a kiosk that we can have a family business to help generate income. This will be the main source of income for the daily expenditure in the house amongst other businesses. I also wish to venture into livestock farming to help in income generation in times of financial constraints."

"This has been a blessing to my family. In the past, I used to sleep on the floor without a nice bed and with old bedding. I purchased new bedding and a bed which have made my life much comfortable. More so I have started preparations to construct a two roomed permanent house."

"Since I had mortgaged my personal land to raise money to marry my wife, I had no place to farm. Therefore when I got enrolled, my primary aim was to get it back and the moment I received my money, I felt so happy."
