"I spent my third transfer on building a chicken cope 7500 KES. I bought 40 chicks 16,000 KES and their feeds 6500 KES.I bought food for my family's consumption 5000 KES. I have also saved some amount of money 15,000 KES"

"I accumulated the first and second transfer and therefore when I received the third one, we paid my dowry, built and moved to our new home where currently live more comfortably and freely."

"My life is different than it would have been if I never received the transfer in that I have paid school fees for my two children who are in high school with ease and now they haven't been sent home more frequently due to school fees arrears. I am thankful to GiveDirectly for educating my children."

"If I would not have received the transfer, I would not have revived my cereal business which had long collapsed and also I would not have built the two houses, mine and for my late co-wife. Thank you GD for the transfer"

"In my opinion, what Give Directly does well is that it works with no corruption but it does no do well by failing to investigate and observe on the ground what people did with the money."

"My life is different than it would have been if I never received the transfer because, currently, I live more comfortably-I sleep on better bedding as opposed to sleeping on ragged ones and mats, I sit on more comfortable couch as opposed to having none and lastly, I started a business-a general shop which is my source of income and through the business, I am now employed-fending for my household members is no longer such a big challenge."

"I feel happy and more contented now. If it were not this transfer, my son would have been dead now since a lot of money was required at the hospital to commence his treatment-a lot of money that I could not raise! Again, I have acquired more wealth in life-I am actually wealthier courtesy of Give Directly-I have acquired more sheep and cows and my status is now a little bit elevated! This is how my life is different than it would have been if I never received the transfer."

"I spent my third transfer on paying school fees for my son in secondary school and another at the university. The remaining amount I spent on buying building materials that I am planning to use to build a new house. My current house is almost collapsing. I have saved the remaining for my rice plantation."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that my standards of living have greatly improved especially to the extent that I can provide daily food to my family members without skipping any as they used to do before transfers."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I am also so happy especially now that I on a cattle. I believe that one day I will also be a re-known farmer in the future."
