I spent my third transfer on purchasing building materials and constructed a 2-roomed house. Previously, I stayed in my grandmother's house, where I sought refuge for I could not continue staying with my parents after marriage. I hated this kind of set-up but poverty could not allow me have any other option.

My life has changed than it would have been if I never received any transfer since I have longed to have my own motorcycle for long but could not achieve the desire until the organisation sent me the second transfer.

In my own opinion, GiveDirectly is corruption free, something that has made it more reliable and unique. One recommendation I would give the organisation is to put more effort on training people on the importance of these transfers.

I spent most of my third transfer to buy a motorcycle which I use in transportation business. I also spent some of my to buy 18 tins of maize for my family's consumption

The biggest difference in my daily life is that I now have my own motorcycle for business and no longer rides for someone.

I spent my first transfer on purchase of 2 bags of dry corn for food since my family members had not eaten well for weeks due to insufficient earnings (4,000 KES), I also paid for our 3 children who are pupils some fee arrears and bought new school uniform (3,800 KES) and also bought 1 sheep as a family asset (3,000 KES).

The moment when I received my money I felt like crying , I felt completely humbled and very grateful; It happens that I was employed as a motor cycle rider to ferry people, but at some point the motor-cycle got damaged and I was rendered jobless since the owner did not seem to be in a hurry to repair it.. After some time I could neither feed my family nor pay the children’s school fee and I became very desperate! Thank God GD Transfer came at the very right moment, just on time!
