Our area now lacks electricity, but there are plans in place, and it is expected that in three months electricity will be installed in our area. My objective is to establish an electric posho mill in order to grow the current business. I have already started saving money for it, and I'm hoping to have raised enough money by the time we receive power. I will be able to manage my business and attend to my sick child thanks to this.

I believe GiveDirectly does a good job of choosing those who are most in need to benefit from their program. The selection process is transparent because they don't consult with any politicians or government representatives. My family and I are able to buy a full day's worth of food, and I also run a business. We owe the organization for all of these things. I advise them to assist more individuals because the program is excellent. Nothing that they are doing is incorrect.

I was inspired to buy a dairy cow because the dairy products company opened a branch right next to our house, ensuring that there would be markets for our milk. As a result, I am thrilled since the dairy cow I purchased with the most recent transfer for $300 is about to give birth. As I am the only source of income for our family, the money I will get from milk sales will help our finances. Because my physically challenged child requires constant supervision, I am unable to engage in a variety of economic activities. Thus, it will be a relief to receive milk revenue. We utilized $50 of the $230 I had left to buy food that would last us for a while, and the rest was used to launch a maize sales business. I appreciate the help because it helped me out financially.

It was around 6 Am when I switched on my phone because I had charged it overnight. I got a message from GiveDirectly confirming that I have received some money. I felt so happy because I have never received such an amount of money before. It was one of the happiest mornings I have ever had. I informed my spouse and he was so happy too. We spend the whole day planning on how to spend the transfer and withdraw the following day. What stood out was buying a piece of land since we lived on a small piece of land.

Purchasing a piece of land is the biggest difference in my daily life. This is because we lived on a small piece of land. we have always wanted to plant Napier grass for our cows. When we were enrolled in the program we felt so happy because this was an opportunity to invest in this. I depend on dairy farming and poultry keeping project, This earns me some income. I was not in a position to save since of the daily expenses and household basic needs. Currently, we have land we have started to plow. I will plant Napier grass for my cow. I will get enough milk and cut the daily cost of buying feeds which is so expensive. I am so grateful for the support because GiveDirectly has changed our living standards.

I spent KES 50,000 on purchasing a piece of land. This is because we lived on a small piece of land. We always wanted to plant enough Napier grass to feed our cows but this was not possible because we had no money to buy land. Currently, we have land and we have started to plow it. We are so grateful because this could have taken quite some time to own. I spent the remaining amount of money on food and household items that we were lacking.
