Yes, I have a plan of expanding my cafeteria business. Once I get some money I aim to add more stock to accommodate and fulfill the needs of all the customers who visit my cafeteria. By so doing, I will be increasing my income and thus cater to my family's needs without straining.

In my opinion, GiveDirectly did a perfect thing for the community and it is a life-changing organization. I had not used a standard bed and a mattress in my life but through the first transfer, I was able to buy and I am now sleeping comfortably. The organization has changed the lives of the community members by enabling them to build good houses because initially, they were in slam-like structures.

Upon withdrawing from the second transfer, I opted to complete my house which I started using the first transfer. Therefore, I used KES 30000.00 to buy iron sheets, roofing timbers, and the labor charge for the contractor. I did this because failure to could see my house incomplete for decades. Thereafter, I bought two goats for KES 6000.00 to have a symbol of GiveDirectly at my home. Healthwise, I had some stomach problems which made me seek medical attention and used KES 11000.00. I also started a cafeteria business using only KES 2000.00. This was a trial since I did not know how it would turn out and I had no experience in the hotel business. I started with making tea and some snacks and the business picked up well.

I am working as a temporary waiter in a small cafeteria at our nearby market center. It was around 7 am, I was busy serving my clients when I received the message from GiveDirectly on my mobile phone. Upon checking, I recognized that I had received my transfer, I felt very happy for receiving my transfer since I had not been in a possession of such a huge amount of money. I forwarded the message to my husband who was very happy about receiving our transfer.

The biggest difference in my life is that I will be able to get a long-lasting solution to the womb problem that has been disturbing me for a very long time. After undergoing proper medical treatment, I am very sure that I will be able to get pregnant and have my child something that will restore my dignity and happiness in marriage. In addition, I will be sleeping on modern beddings to replace the traditional uncomfortable ones.

My priority is to spend my transfer to seek medical care for myself from a gynecologist. For 3 years in marriage, I have not been able to conceive due to womb problems. Every time I experienced miscarriage after getting pregnant something that had been bothered me a lot and make my life miserable. I am planning to spend KES 10,000 to seek proper medical care. In addition, I am planning to spend KES 15,000 to purchase proper beddings for my family since we had been using the traditional threads bed which is not comfortable and less durable. Lastly, I intend to use the remaining amount to start poultry farming as an alternative source of income for myself.
