My life is different comparing with who I was in the past when I worked as a casual laborer in my neighbor's farm. I am now my own boss and carrying out my duties without supervision. My household's lifestyle has also improved because we can take dietary meals which was not the case in the recent past.

In my opinion giving unconditional and non refundable cash transfer makes Give Directly exceptional since most lives have been transformed through this great organization.

I spent my second transfer on purchasing a water pipe for an irrigation pump I bought with my first transfer.Initially I was foreman in a neighbor's farm and I had developed the desire of starting my own farm but lacked the resources. When I received my transfers I knew this was the time to start my water melon project. I also bought farm tools and other equipment to start me off. To improve my farming I bought pesticides and fungicides. I expect to have a bumper harvest.

I have always believed in farming and I have always had dreams of how I can improve my life through farming but because I had very low income so this has not been effective in my life. When I received this transfer, I was able to buy water pump and fertilizer which has really improved my farming practise and I know I will finally achieve my dreams.

I felt very good because I was in dire need of the mooney and it coame at the right time.

I spent my transfer on buying water pump which I use for irrigating my farm, seeds which I used in my farm and household items such as food, utensils and bedding.
