"I expect to have completely settled in my compound and have a few livestock of my own in my compound. That will make my home feel somehow complete."

"The next six months shall be a milestone in my life. I expect that by this time I shall have bought the piece of land from the merry go round contributions and even practice advanced farming methods. I want to move away from the long term crops and practice horticultural farming. This shall definitely bring a difference in my life and I am looking forward to it."

"Receiving this money means I will be able to build an iron roofed house. As I speak, life is not easy for me. I can't sleep peacefully at night especially when it rains because my house leaks. I believe I will be better if I build a good house."

"Receiving this money means I will be able to build an iron roofed house. Maintaining a grass thatched house is expensive because it involves changing grass every now and then. An iron roofed house will relieve me of the burdden of looking for grass."

"The biggest hardship that I am faced with is sickness. I am a victim of epilepsy and I can not work like other people do. This is because of the frequent attacks that are associated with this disease."

"The biggest hardship I face is lack of money for buying oxen and ox-plough. My mother moved for another marriage after the death of my father. She left me struggling with life, so from child hood I survive on farming. This requires an input like oxen and ox-plough yet I do not have money hence cultivation has always been a problem."

"Receiving this money means I will be able to buy land. I separated with my spouse and returned to my parents home. My parents did not given me a share of customary land, hence I donot have where to cultivate and build a homestead. This has always tortured me since Iam treated as come back. Iam borrowing where to cultivate each seaon. This has always made me delay planting and I end up getting low out put which can not sustaing my family."

"The biggest hardship I face is poverty. Iam an elder son among siblings, so all the burden of paying their fees and sustainability depends on me. My only available source income is through causal labour and farming. This gives me little money for maitaining the needs of the family."

"Receiving this money will enable me to buy a chaff cutter that will help improve my cattle feeds which will in turn improve milk production hence more income to support my daily needs. The remaining part of the transfer will enable me to complete constructing my house."

"My house will be improved because It will be timber walled and the floor will be made of concrete. The expected difference is the fact that my family will be living in such a nice compound and house that I always wanted for them. I also expect to have a fully furnished house with a 7 seater sofa sets. I will be using the GivedIrectly transfers to make all these improvements."
