I do not have new goals for now and I am grateful for the ones I archived. First, the fact that I am now sleepy on better beddings has restored the lost joy in my life. Earlier on, I used to sleep on traditional beds which I was not comfortable with. I have been suffering from back pains as a result. Also, there was no privacy sharing the same beds with my children. I am now a happy mother since everyone sleeps in her bed.

In my opinion, GiveDirectly has been going a superb job and this is evident from the appearance of the entire village. The financial support has empowered most of us to own beautiful houses, a variety of livestock, and own pieces of land. This could not have happened if it were not for the organization. I honestly could not see any part that the Organisation failed.

I spent my second transfer on clearing school fees of KES 10000 for my five primary school kids. They have been sent regularly because of the huge accumulated fees. As a parent, it used to stress me a lot because at times they could miss their exams forcing them to repeat. It is now a relief after settling the arrears and even paying some in advance. In addition to that, I bought building materials such as iron sheets at KES 18000. This was purposely for the construction of a new house for my kids who have been sleeping at their grandmother's house for years. I felt there was a need for them to have privacy since they were all teenagers. With the remaining amount of money, I bought food for my ten family members.

I was awakened by the loud vibration from my mobile phone at exactly 5 AM. I was nervous because it was too early to receive a message at that particular time. Therefore, I quickly decided to check the content of the message only to realize it was an Mpesa message from Segovia Technology. They had finally fulfilled their promise and I was so happy. I went around waking the family up because I couldn't contain the joy of receiving the good news.

The biggest difference in my daily life is that I am now a proud owner of two dairy cows. I am now ambitious and happy because I am certain very soon I will start getting milk from my livestock. I have been undergoing a lot of challenges all along and this is because my spouse was the only breadwinner who solely depend on om the off jobs with a very low income( KES 100) in a day. With a family of ten members, I had to think of a permanent solution for all the troubles in my life. Also, previously, it was hard for us to take milk since it was costly and very rare to get since there were few people owning dairy cows in my village. I am now very excited that my children will be healthier. Besides, I will earn more by selling the remaining liters to the local dairy shops and to my neighbors. This money will help me to pay school fees for my children who had opted to drop out of school due to a huge school fee balance. From that point, I believe my life will never be the same again.

I spent KES 20000 of my first transfer on paying school fees for my four children who are both in primary and secondary schools respectively. Two were approaching their final exams and this was stressing me since I thought they would miss sitting for the tests due to the huge fee arrears. I am glad I was able to clear the arrears with the help I received from GiveDirectly. I later bought two dairy cows worthy of KES 20000, This has been my long-time dream to own them but due to my meagre income, I could not afford to even buy one. I finally used the remaining amount on purchasing sufficient foodstuffs for my family and household items.
