"I spent part of my third transfer on buying building materials that I used to repair my house that was not in a very good condition. I have painted it too and it looks so neat. The remaining I spent on paying school fees for my two in secondary school. I wish GiveDirectly could add us more money, but I can only be grateful for the ones I have received."

"My life is different than it would have been if I never received the transfer because if it was not for Gd I wouldn't have afforded such a high quality iron sheets that I used in constructing my house. I'm happy I have a bigger house which will last longer."

"I have a daughter in college and by the time I received the money she needed examination fee so I gave part of the third transfer to pay for her fee. I also have a son in secondary school who had fee arrears and I paid his school fee too with the third transfer. I then used a portion of the money to complete constructing my house that was not fully done."

"I had bought two windows with y previous transfer but they were not enough so I had to add some with this last transfer I also bought 16 iron sheets to build a kitchen and partitioned it to serve as a place I would rear my chicken since I started my chicken business."

"When i received my second transfer I bought two cows which I later sold and combined the last transfer and bought motorbike to start a transport business."

"I spent my third transfer on paying University fee for 20,000 KES for my son studying Theology since this is solely my responsibility. I also bought 20 pieces of iron sheets for 20,000 KES, and when I get more money I will buy more materials to build a bigger and better house which I need badly. I spent the balance 7,000 KES on boosting my cereals business, in which I have experienced higher profit ."

"My life has changed, with the fish business going on perfect and children are all in school. We as a family thank GD for the third transfer."

"I now earn a daily income from the fish business which I started with my second transfers."

"I kept quiet and did not withdraw money for three days because I was in disbelief."

"I spent my third transfer on buying a sheep that I am rearing. I also spent some of the money on buying building materials that I am planning to use to construct a kitchen. I am currently cooking outside and the weather changes is not always favorable when cooking. The remaining I spent on paying school fees for my son who, is taking a course in electrical engineering. I am happy I did not have to struggle to look for the school fees, let my son read now after given that his fees is fully paid."
