"In the next six months, I expect my education life to be easy and simple. I shall have built my own house in the next six months which will provide me with ample time for my night studies. I shall no longer wade on mud at night whenever it rains in search of a place to spend my night. This will greatly improve my performance in class as a result, I strongly believe that my ambition to attain university grades will be achievable."

"I want to buy barbed wire that I will use to fence my entire compound so that I do not have to keep the chicks in a closed door environment for the whole day. Apart from that, I want to build a permanent structure for my chicks so that I will not have to use the temporary structure in the future."

"In the next six months, I would want to buy a cow. This will be an investment for my family. From this, I would want to have an inheritance that I would leave to my sons when I die."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I no longer struggle to pay rent as I used to do in the past. Every month after receiving my transfers, I use part of it to pay rent. In the past I have been struggling to pay rent because the money I got from casual jobs was little and could not cater all my basic needs and also support my siblings. I have also saved part of my transfers in table banking and I will use the savings to open a barber shop. The income from the business will be enough to pay school fees for my siblings."

"In the next six months, I want to build a new house. The one I have now is not the best I would have wanted to have. It is because of life's problems that is why I have the house. I would want to use the transfers to buy building materials to aid me in building a better and bigger house."

"In the six months, I would want to buy a boat. This will be my source of income for I know how the fishing business, I will never go back to begging and the struggles of borrowing every now and again."

"The biggest difference in my daily life since I started receiving payments from Give Directly is that I can now meet all my basic needs. In the past, it was a challenge to provide my basic needs but now I no longer struggle since I used part of transfers to get basic needs such as food. I can also help my father to pay his hospital bill monthly check ups. He was involved in a road accident and he has been going for monthly hospital check ups. At times he could miss to go for the check ups when I did not have the money but now I am happy since he no longer miss the medical check ups since I am using part of transfers to pay his hospital bill."

"My life is currently different in that I have acquired all the necessary equipment to open the video shop business. I am happy since I know that before the end of this month, I will have started this business. I have also improved my business where I sell shoes and I have a a variety of shoes in my shop. The income from the business has increased since I used part of transfers to buy more shoes. Thank you Give Directly for the cash transfers."

"In six months time, I hope I will have cleared my school fees so that I can use the rest of my transfers to improve my lifestyle by purchasing personal requirements such as clothes and shoes. At my age, it is quite embarrassing that I do not have any decent clothes even to wear to church. I hope I will be able to do all this once I am done paying my school fees."

"In the six months, I would want to buy a cow. This is because I know with this, my family will be elevated from poverty which has been our burden since I got married. I would want to change the story of my life with GD transfers. I would not want to go back to where I was before the transfers."
