"Initially, I lived in an earthed house which was really embarrassing me and I kept on admiring others' houses that were cemented and therefore when I recieved my third transfer, I cemented my house that currently looks spending as well."

"Educating my 2 children, one in college and the other one in a secondary school had been a problem to me since back then, they could not stay in school to learn like the rest of the student due to huge fees arrears that could not be accepted by the administrations but when I received my third transfer, I cleared for both of them college and secondary fees and as we talk, I am glad that they are learning more smoothly."

" With this transfer i was able to renovate my iron roofed house which was in bad condition, i also bought good beddings which i thought i would never afford."

"The moment i received the money i became so happy and joined the village members in ululation."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that, I am fairly improving now and my health is better as compared to before I got the transfer. This is because I even did not know if I would go for treatment since I had no money. "

"I spent my third transfer on buying building materials that I used to build a new house in my own compound. The remaining I spent on paying school fees for my children in school."

"I have so many orphans under my care,so I spent my third transfer on buying them clothes and food that they could feed on. I Also spent some on buying utensils and livestock but unfortunately one died."

"It was during drought and the hunger strike was so intense when I received my third transfer, so I spent some money on buying three sacks of corn for my family consumption. At least my family had something to feed on during this time. I also spent some buying utensils to replace the old ones I had. The remaining I spent on buying two sheep and clothing for my children."

"I spent my third transfer on buying steel doors and glass windows that I have since fitted in my house I constructed using my second transfer. I also bought some goats that I am rearing and the remaining on adding stock to my retail shop business. I can only be grateful to GiveDirectly."

"My life is different than it would have been if I never received the transfer in that currently, me together with my household members live in a more secure and healthier environment since we constructed an iron-roofed house that has not only protected us from rain but also improved our security since no one can just walk in and attack us-the house is stronger enough."
