What did you spend your third transfer on?
I spent my third transfer on plastering my 4-roomed house (25,000 KES) because it was made from mud which used to be washed off whenever rained and thus this was a priority. I also bought materials for my welding business (25,000 KES) to increase my working capital for increased profit.

What did you spend your first transfer on?
I spent most of my transfer to pay school fees for my child. Bought half a sack of maize for my family's consumption and divided the remaining amount between me and my spouse.
Describe the moment when you received your money. How did you feel?
When Gd first told us about the transfers, I did not believe that I could receive such amount which is also non refundable. But when I received the money, I was very happy and believed that GD was real. Thank you so much and God bless you.
