"GiveDirectly does well by visiting every household in the village and determining their eligibility. This helps in ensuring that no deserving household is left out of the program unlike if the firm had chosen to rely on intermediaries. It is great that GiveDirectly is fair during the enrollment processes. In my opinion, there is nothing that the organization is not doing well."

"We lead a better living standard after receiving the transfer. In brief, we have managed to attain a lot; having a new house, acquiring adequate food and new clothing and paying school fees for my children yet I was ailing. Though I am still sick, I feel less stressed as the otherwise primarily breadwinner."

"I bought a water tank worth KES 23000 using my recent transfer to use in harvesting rain water This tank will be so helpful to my family especially during the dry season when one has to walk for a longer distance looking for clean water for domestic use. Also, I spent KES 20000 to pay school fees for my three children who are in secondary school. We decided on this as a family so that they would not be sent back home. Using the remaining amount, I bought some food to last my family for some time and some decent clothes."

"As it is I'm living in a very small house,i really wish to own a bigger house one day,i do a motorbike tax and the motor bike is not even mine i really wish to own one myself because the money i make from this motorbike i share it with the owner."

"The biggest hardship is hunger,source of income to buy farm inputs and a good ,reliable shelter,because i relay on farming i wish to be harvesting much since the maize we yield yearly must take us through untill the next season but this is just a dream because i always haverst handful products due to insufficient funds for adequate farm inputs.I'm a victim of hunger each and every year because i don't have enough food."

"The biggest hardship i have ever faced is hunger,lack of a proper shelter and basic needs such clothes,beddings,me and my husband we relay on a small business of building tombstone and the money we make out of that business can't sustain us for a month."

"Receiving this money really means so much to me and I'm super excited for getting enrolled in the programme only a person with brains will make use of this money to create a life changing standard."

"In my opinion GiveDirectly does well by giving money to the poor in the community to build better houses and to start businesses. I do not find anything that GiveDirectly did not do well."
