Brian
received a $196 initial payment.
"I spent part of my most recent transfer to buy items like clothes, bags, Jewelleries and shoes. I am planning to open a boutique shop at our rural home since there is no stiff competition there. I will employ my brother to run it so that he can also be getting some money to use in buying his personal needs. I have 4800 KES which I am saving them for emergencies."

Ivine
received a $196 initial payment.
"As a college student, there are lots of research work we do in school which are best done when one has access to a computer. Since I did not have one, I was forced to go to a cybercafe, spending a lot of money to get my work done. Now that I have my own laptop, I do my research on time, get time to consult with my colleagues and get the best result unlike before when I used to work alone in a cybercafe."

Edith
received a $196 initial payment.
"I had not expected the money to come so soon after registration, so I was pleasantly surprised. The first thing I thought of doing was posting on our group's WhatsApp channel to inform the rest of the good news, but then I realised I was late because everyone was already there praising and thanking GD."
