"Being a casual worker, i work in peoples homes in order to earn a living to enable me provide for my family. However, its not usually a guarantee for me to get any job daily hence as the breadwinner of my family, this worries me. Unreliable source of income is therefore the biggest hardship i have faced"

"I was diagnosed of athritis 6 years ago, a disease that has greatly affected my health and productivity since i cant engage in activities such as farming, something that i used to depend on for living before the disease cropped in. I now fully depend on my children to provide for me which makes me feel like im being a burden to them. This is the biggest hardship i have faced"

"In the next six months, My life will have improved because I will be having another source income in the egg production alongside crop farming. I will establish the project in the next two months and by the sixth month, I will be benefitting from the investment. I know that I will have an easier time and an ability to even invest more aggressively in farming."

"I have a son who in Secondary school.He is already a grown man and as such requires his private space.In our culture,once a boy goes through circumcision, they are no longer allowed to sleep in the same house as the parents.Due to money related challenges together with the struggles to feed and educate my children,I have not been able to raise money to build him his own house where he can study and sleep.He has therefore been forced to sleep at a neighbour's house and I sometimes see this as demeaning.Receiving this money means that I will finally be able to build him a small house."

"My goal right now is to complete the course in saloon and cosmetics that I began. The money has created an opportunity for me to pay partly my fees. Completing this course in a few months is the biggest goal I would like to accomplish."

"Receiving this money means that I will buy abull for ploughing since I sold the one I had for treatment. It is always difficult to dig abigger portion of the garden using hand hoes, therefore there is a need for abull for ploughing. The balance of the money will be used for treatment since Iam not feeling well."

"The biggest hardship that I am faced with is living alone as a widow. Managing a family as a widow is not an easy thing to do. Children need to feed, they need treatment, education and all other needs yet I am just an individual trying to provide. I don't have enough land that I would cultivate to get food. Life is just a struggle."

"Receiving this money means I will be able to retrive the piece of land that I leased, build an iron roofed house. Maintaining a grass thatched house is not easy. "

"My life has improved in that, I have acquired an ox that has eased my agriculture. Secondly, I am in the process of constructing a separate house for my children. Before receiving this money, I didn't have hope of constructing another house and buying an ox due to limited funds."

"This support has enable me owned an acre of land that I going to cultivate freely. Furthermore, I have also owned descent clothes, new mattress and beddings that are very comfortable. Previouly, I didn't have an acre of my own, I cultivated on people's land who often gave me pressure to remove my crops when they are not yet ready for harvest."
