My life is currently different than how it would have been had I never received the transfer since I have been able to build a house for my children. Due to this, they now sleep comfortably without any disturbances like before when they used to be sleeping in the kitchen. I am also always proud to receive visitors any time since I know that there is a place where they will sleep at comfortably.

In my own opinion, GD did well by honoring their promise and there is nothing that they did not do well.

When I received my second transfer, I spent part of it to pay school fees for my children and to buy for them some school requirements. They had been sent back home to collect the outstanding arrears and I had not been able to raise the money. Also I bought a table as I had only one and some utensils since the ones I had were not enough. I spent the remaining amount to buy some basic needs for my family. I bought enough food to last us for some time and clothes.

The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have built a better and spacious kitchen for my family. Before I used to have a small grass-thatched kitchen for cooking. There was a big problem because it was leaking from the inside and cooking was a problem especially during the rainy season. My children used to sleep in the same house and they were exposed to cold. I remember the could complain so much and because I was doing casual jobs and the money that I get from that was not enough for me to buy building materials to build a new house for them. I could not welcome visitors to my house because it was not decent but currently I have a good house and I don't fear to welcome visitors anymore. My children also have a good place to sleep and do their assignment. We are so grateful because our living standard has improved.

The moment I received my money I felt so happy. I remember it was very early in the morning when I heard a message from my phone and I thought it was the common message from friends but when I checked it I could not believe my eyes because I have never received such amount of money before. I do casual jobs and the money that I receive from doing that was so little. My spouse and children were so happy because we knew our lives will change to be good. On that morning we went to buy building materials and planned on building a house.

I spent my first transfer to built a spacious kitchen because the one I had was small and it was so inconveniencing when cooking food. I also bought a heifer and the rest of the money I used it to buy clothes and food for the family.
