"My life is different now because I see a big change in terms of stress. I'm no-longer stressed on how I could get back my land, buy household items and Livestock that I lacked previously. I live a more comfortable life because I managed to off set debts enabling me have full ownership of my gardens. Previously, Life was so difficult to extent that I survived on casual labor to get some income to provide for my family. This is now history to me because, These transfers have liberated me from that shameful casual work I used to do."

"Currently, I am happy because I now live a comfortable life. My house has enough space for all household members. Before, I used to sleep in a grass thatched house that was full of holes on the roof and when it rained, it would leak."

"Currently, my life has changed in that I am a respected in law because I have completed payment of bride price. Secondly, I am happy because I make daily income through my business to support my family. Prior to receiving this cash transfer, there was a lot of disrespect from my in laws because I hadn't fulfilled this traditional obligation and besides, it was difficult to earn even $1 a day."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that, my self esteem has improved. I can now talk with friends and neighbours due to the status lifted by the cash transfer. Prior to receiving this cash transfer, I had low self esteem and no body wanted to associate with me."

"My life is currently different from how it was before because I now own a big semi-permanent house. I had started building this house sometimes back but due to lack of enough money, I was stuck along the way. It had become a laughing stock in my neighborhood since people saw me as a poor planner who built castles in the air. I am glad I was able to shut them down when I finally completed constructing the house. I also made a good harvest after hiring labor and buying a few farm inputs. This meant cultivating a larger area of land and ensuring that I got healthier crops. I am glad I have adequate food that will last us up to the next season. I even have an option of selling some bags and earn more money which will help me in settling the other needs."

"In the four months, I wish to buy building materials such as iron sheets and nails which I will use in building a new house. The one I have is too small with 6 iron sheets for the roof. It cannot accommodate my family well and it is a shame especially compared to my neighbours' houses."

"The biggest hardship I am facing is starting to buy household items since my house got burnt two months back."

"The biggest hardship I am facing is little or no food because the husband has low income to maintain the family."

"In the next six months l expect to have bought build materials and started build my house."

"In the next six months l expect to have got enough produce from my farming being that l am planning to do large farming."
