Kadzo
received a $28 sixteenth payment.
"Looking into the next year, I purpose to have successfully enrolled my son in high school. He recently completed grade eight and is set to join secondary education, but financial constraints are burdening me. After he is settled, I plan to construct a concrete pillar around the mud walls of my house to reinforce them. This will prevent the house from collapsing from adverse weather. "

Zawadi
received a $28 twelfth payment.
"Having no one to support me in raising my children is tough since I lack a stable source of income for all their basic needs. At this point, supporting their education is the greatest opportunity I can offer them to ensure they secure a brighter future. I plan to do this by continuing to save through the self-help group and rearing livestock to afford their school fees. "

"Supporting the education of my seven children is my priority right now. I would be happy if I could have the capacity to see them through primary school, secondary school, and college. In fact, one of them is set to join high school next month and my goal is to ensure he is well-settled. "

Samuel
received a $442 initial payment.
"We currently live in a small hut with my family of three and have been considering building a new one that would comfortably accommodate us while also creating an extra space in the current house to be used as a kitchen. I spent $250 on construction materials from the first transfer, which included 15 iron sheets, building poles, and nails, as well as the cost of transportation from the shopping center to my residence's door. I am relieved that I have secured a contractor's schedule to begin construction in the first week of February. I also used some of the remaining funds to purchase household goods, such as groceries for $60, clothing for $20, and a bed and mattress for $95. I also paid off a $50 debt. I am grateful for the situation that has changed so much in my family and given me hope of regaining dignity once I finish building a new, spacious house."

Esha
received a second payment.
"Once I am done building my house, I am planning to save some money from burning and selling charcoal so that I can set up a local green groceries shop. Achieving this means that I will be earning more money besides selling charcoal and therefore, I will be able to help my husband with family responsibilities and take my children to better schools."
