"In my opinion, GiveDirectly did well for sending the cash transfer which has transformed our lives. I could not have started livestock rearing and purchased a motorbike for my son without this aid."

"I spent $300 of my transfer to improve the condition of my house by constructing an additional room since the one I had earlier was small and I had to seek refuge whenever I received visitors. In addition, I spend $150 to seek medical care. I was suffering from high blood pressure a condition that has been taken away the happiness of my life. The remaining amount assisted me to acquire enough food for my family."

"I spent $300 to complete the construction of my house by purchasing 22 iron sheets, timber and paying labour charges. This is because my house was small and single roomed which was not spacious to fully accommodate my commodities. In addition, I spent $100 to acquire clothes for I and my children since we lacked enough clothing. The remaining amount assisted us on purchasing adequate food stuff for the family because for years we had been experiencing drought in our village."

"My life is different in that I was able to construct a proper shelter for the family. I am now living in a comfortable house with the kids. Most importantly, I was able to seek medical care with the transfer and I am recovering well after the treatment. Being sick I was not able to work and the transfer has been of a great help since I was able to purchase enough food."

"I spent $300 on educating my child who is in college taking a plant operation course by clearing the fee arrears. I also completed the construction of my house by purchasing iron sheets, timber and paying labour charges for the construction of the roof of my house. In addition, I purchased proper beddings for myself since the one I had was old and worn out. I also seek special medical care since I had eyes problem but I lack the finances to visit the optician. The remaining amount assist me in purchasing food for myself and purchased clothes."

"Am so grateful for this offer, it will help me to financially afford enough and needs of my family."

"I was given a very small piece of land for farming and I could harvest not enough food which made me to eat less food."

"In my opinion, GiveDirectly does well by giving out out financial aid and I do not see anything that they do not do well."

"My life is different than how it would have been had I not received the transfer. This is because I am now a proud owner of a dairy cow. Due to this, there is a reduction of KES 60 on my daily expenditure as I no longer buy milk like before. In addition, I am currently well informed about most of the things happening in our county and around the globe as I always listen to news using my radio and I am able to make well informed decisions."

"In my opinion, GiveDirectly does well by educating people on their programs and honoring their promise without any discrimination and I do not see anything that they do not do well."
