"My goal this year is to further my education by enrolling in college and successfully completing my education. Armed with the knowledge and skills acquired during this educational journey, I am confident that I will be well-equipped to shape a better future for myself. The unconditional cash transfers I've been receiving have played a crucial role in making this aspiration a reality, providing the necessary support to pursue academic endeavors and paving the way for a brighter future ahea"

"My dream is to expand my business and reach new horizons. I'm planning to open another shop at a different location, The additional income from the new venture will secure a better future for my family. With the savings accumulated through the unconditional cash transfers, I'm determined to enroll my little one in a quality school once she reaches the school-going age. The transfers have contributed to the well being of my family and I."

"My major goal is to build my mother a more spacious house, with a special section dedicated to a kitchen, providing her with the comfort she deserves. The current living conditions have been challenging and it will be a tangible expression of gratitude for my mother's sacrifices. Additionally, I aim to invest buying in a dairy cow, and capitalize on the demand for milk in the village due to persistent droughts. I'm so grateful, GiveDirectly transfers are transforming our lives."

"Our primary goal is to start building our own house, as the current one has become too small for our growing family. Currently, some of my older children have to sleep at their grandmother's place due to the limited space. The cash transfers have provided us with the financial means to start this project. In addition to the house construction, I have plans to expand our dairy farming for additional income. Givedirectly transfers have made me optimistic about achieving these goals in the coming year,"

"My goal in the coming year is to open a salon within my village. This will allow me to transform my academic knowledge into a practical and sustainable livelihood. In addition to the salon, I have a plan to diversify my sources of income by rearing livestock and engage in their sale for additional revenue. I'm so excited about my journey with Givedirectly cash transfers."

"My primary goal is to invest in livestock, to serve as a source of income. The plan is to buy and resale hence financial financial stability. Additionally, I hope to use the cash transfers to embark on a journey of personal development and growth. Currently residing with my parents, I aim to build my own house, establishing a haven of privacy and comfort for my children and I."

"My foremost priority is ensuring that all my children not only attend school but also complete their education without facing the hurdles of financial constraints. My other plan is raising livestock, helping me to create a sustainable source of income and savings. With these, my family will be uplifted now and in the future. Givedirectly has empowered us to take steps and improve our overall well being."

"I do not want my education from college to go at a loss. If my parents had the financial muscle to take care of my school fees I would redirect the money from the transfers into purchasing a tool box to help me become a professional carpenter for hire. I would want to venture into the business but I will need to first use my transfers to clear my debts at school and finish my last term at the college and then maybe with money from work I will do I can now think about venturing on my own."

"I have been buying chicken over a course of time, I bought chicken in January and also in November. I have a plan that I hope will be able to provide me with emergency funds. I am unemployed, My husband is a construction worker working on a casual basis. He only makes money when he secures work and that is not as often as we would want. I want to buy chicken which will hatch eggs that will become chicks and when they are all grown up the cycle continues. This means that incase we get emergencies such as health or school related we can sell the chicken and pay for those services."

"I can confidently say my business has improved greatly, my earnings have also improved greatly. I had hoped that this business would be restocked that the business is able to stand on its own. I would want to add stock to the point I am not worried if the business is able to stand on its own. I am still planning to continue adding to the business to the point that it can run and restock itself. I also want to start animal farming but this will be dependent on the finances I have."
