"In the coming year and beyond, I desire to replace my tin roof with new iron sheets. Although the house was recently built, I had to use old iron sheets from the previous house, which have corroded over time and developed holes, allowing water to seep in when it rains. I would never want my new bed and mattress, obtained with the transfer funds, to be dampened and damaged by rainwater. That is why I plan to start saving towards purchasing new roofing materials. Additionally, I would prefer this responsibility to solely fall on my shoulders, as I do not wish to burden my son, who is already constrained by the school fees of his seven children. I am hopeful that the transfers will fully support this endeavor."

"the next few months, my goal is to build up a flock of goats. I've got this plan where every two months, whenever I get the monthly transfers, I'm going to use it to buy another goat. I figure if I keep doing this, my flock will grow pretty fast. And when it gets bigger, I can sell some of the goats if I ever run into money problems. Plus, having all those goats around will mean I'll have a little extra income coming in too. It's like having a safety net that also helps me make some extra money."

"In the next few years my plan is to start a chicken faming business .I want to buy some Chicken and raise them to sell later on and met my emergency at the same time be able to slaughter one whenever a visitor comes .Right now , am counting on the monthly transfers I receive from Givedirectly to help me get started. I believe that if I manage to grow my flock , I can eventually sell them for profit and make good money for myself and provide financial stability."

"In the years ahead, my focus will be on maximizing the productivity of my acre of land, now that my crops are safeguarded by the newly erected chain-link fence. This development has ignited a renewed sense of motivation within me to put forth even more effort. As my sole source of income, I am determined to leverage my farming endeavors to provide for the education of my four children. I plan to specialize in butternut and tomato farming, optimizing the land's potential, ensuring timely planting, and availing of the required farm input to generate a higher income."

"In the upcoming months, my intention is to buy additional goats. This will make them multiply, and when they do, I will be able to sell some and use the proceeds to meet my needs. I will have something to rely on to bring in some money even after the time limit for receiving the transfers expires. The financial assistance I have been receiving thus far has made me very happy. I am achieving my life's long-term objectives with its assistance."

"My intention is to buy a goat in the upcoming months. The objective is to increase the quantity and number of goats. Even when the aid is over, the goats will still be of assistance to me. In addition, I want to renovate my old roof and install new iron sheets in its place. There are no words to express how grateful I am for the support that the transfers are providing for me."

"In the coming years, my vision is to grow my salon business into a thriving enterprise that encompasses both retail and wholesale cosmetics. With a deep passion for beauty, I see this as a good opportunity to generate substantial income. My goal is to become a recognized cosmetic provider within our community, offering a wide range of products to meet the diverse needs of customers. While this endeavor requires a significant cash for the expansion, I am committed to saving diligently from the income of my salon and future earnings from maize farming to make this vision a reality."

"I aspire to build my own comfortable house, replacing the mud structure I currently reside in to a stone-built home featuring two rooms. To achieve this, I plan to first focus on multiplying my goats and subsequently selling them one by one to fund the construction. Additionally, I will diligently save from my work as a motorcycle driver, maintaining steady progress toward my goals.The prospect of constructing a solid stone house represents a significant step towards achieving long-term stability and security.Through dedication and strategic planning, I am committed to realizing this dream and creating a space where I can thrive and flourish."

"Despite the challenges I have faced, I am determined to work hard and complete my studies. My ultimate goal is to join the Kenya Defense Forces, where I can serve my nation and contribute to its well-being. The hardships of being sent home from school only fuel my motivation to succeed and make a difference. I aspire to save enough and give back to my community, ensuring that others facing similar struggles have opportunities to thrive."

"I currently earn a living by hawking second-hand clothes, but my ultimate goal is to open my own shop. The relentless heat and exhaustion from walking around all day make it incredibly challenging to earn even $2 in a week. While I am grateful for having food on the table, recent times have been tough due to lack of customers. Opening a shop in town is my vision, as it will attract more customers and enable me to generate substantial profits. I plan to save enough from my merry-go-round contributions, believing that when it's my turn to receive the funds, I will be able to kick-start my dream business."
