"In the next six months l expect to have started saving for my project of building a kitchen."

"Receiving this money means that my life will change for the better. I will restart a livestock business that will be a reliable source of income for my family. I have done this business before but because of insufficient funds, I failed. Restarting this business will sustain my family's basic needs among them: food and school fees. "

"Receiving this money means that I will be able to improve my livelihood. I intend to construct a better house for myself because the one I currently live in is not spacious enough to accommodate my kitchen, granary and poultry. "

"The biggest hardship I have faced in my life is lack of stable source of income that can sustain my family. I only depend on subsistence farming and some income from my daughter who is doing casual job in Mombasa. These sources are not reliable and sometimes I fail to meet some of my family's basic needs among them: paying school fees for my children."

"My life is different in that I have been in position to get out of the loose that I faced(my house got burnt with all my belongs) with this transfer I was able to get new household items, I couldn't have bought most of the house hold items that got burnt in a short time had I not recieved this transfer."

"My life is different in that, the family income has greatly improved because of the motorbike that does transportation business, in a day I get 15000 ugx to 20,000 ugx that has enabled me to provide food and medical treament for my family, I couldn't have bought this motorbike had I not recieved money from Give Directly."

"Family conflict that led to separation with my wife was one of the biggest hardship I've faced in life. I went into depression and alcoholism for a long period of time. I lost my job and the little resources I had back then disappeared. The thought of spending the rest of my life without her shattered me. It is by the grace of God and help from my family that am a better man now. At the moment, am in good health, and able to engage in economical activities."
