I do not have any new goal now, I wish to focus on my poultry keeping project and small-scale farming. This will be my source of income since I will sell the eggs and my farm produce to meet other households

GiveDirectly does very good work in that they conduct their training so well and does the enrollment without any biases. Most of the people who received the transfer spent it well and this has improved their standard of living. I do not find anything that GiveDirecly did not do well.

I spent KES 20,000 on purchasing some of the materials to complete the construction of the new house that I started using the previous transfer. The house is now done. I had a small kitchen that was grass thatched and it was leaking from inside. I am so happy because now I have moved to a decent and spacious house. I spent KES 15,000 on purchasing a heifer. When it reproduces in the next few months I will get enough milk for my family. The remaining amount of money I spent on food and household items that I was lacking at that particular time.

I was relaxing at home taking tea with my husband at around 5 pm. That's when I heard a message alert on my phone and because I am illiterate I gave it out to my helper. He checked and confirmed that I had received KES 55,000 from GiveDirectly. I was very happy and still happy to date.

The biggest difference in my daily life is building a modern and spacious Iron rooted kitchen. This is because the previous one was old, worn out and its grass thatched roof had been leaking for about a year. I had desired to build a better one because smearing mud and grass-thatched have become more expensive. Additionally, the process of smearing a mud-walled house is cumbersome, especially at my age.

Before GiveDirectly, I used to live in an old worn-out kitchen with leaking roofs. I had desired to build a better one but could afford it. This is because at my age I can't do much and have relied on dairy and poultry farming for food only. Fortunately, when I received my GiveDirectly transfers. I saw this as a dream come true. I, therefore, demolished the old Kitchen and used some of its materials and KES 37,000 of my transfer on the construction of a two-roomed 42 Iron roofed modern kitchen. The remainder was spent as follows; I spent was KES 2500 on the latest clothing for me and my husband. KES 3,000 was spent on a 250 liters water container this will help in the storage of water for a longer period, especially during the rainy seasons. Lastly, I spent KES 3000 on a bag of maize, and 2500 on other food and household items. This is because the maize crop has failed in our area but this will sustain us for a longer period.
