"I am a widow and did not know that I will one day live in a bigger and plastered house, I never also thought that I could start any business as I had no one to support me financially and never knew that my life would be bright and I could laugh again but the transfer has brought happiness, joy and peaceful nights in my life because I know from my business profits, my family cannot go hungry and my children will not be sent home for school fees."

"I am planning to spend my upcoming transfer on buying cows that i will take as bride price to my wife's home and use the remaining money on school fees for my brother who was left under my care and is set to join secondary school come next year."

"If i get the upcoming transfer,i would want to buy two cattle that will act as my assets. I can even sell them and take my children to school in future. I also want to build another spacious house."

"I am planning to spend my upcoming transfer on renovatig my house, paying school fees and I would also like to build a new latrine"

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I managed to purchase a bicycle and as a casual labourer, right now I go to far off place very fast and also save atleast 100KES used on transport everyday."

"My current house is pathetic and leaking and therefore receiving this second transfer will be a liberation to my life."

"GiveDirectly gives out cash transfers and allows the recepient to use it with no limits unlike other NGOs where the recepient benefits from a specific thing which she might already have."

"I am planning to spend my upcoming transfer on renovating my house and putting up a business that will bring me income"

"If i get the upcoming transfer i want to construct a kitchen and a cow shed as at the moment my cows spend outside which is not safe."

"I am planning that when I will receive this my upcoming second transfer, I will build a new house since I am afraid of the one we are currently living in since it is weak and may collapse on us. The rest of the transfer would help me expand my general shop."
