I do not have a new goal that I did not have before receiving the transfer in that I had planned on paying the school fees for my son who had cleared his studies but had not been issued with the certificate. I am so happy because he is yet to join college now.

GiveDirectly does well by conducting training before enrollment. People were able to understand the project well and get registered easily. Most of the people who received the transfer spent it well. I do not find anything that GiveDirectly did not do well.

I spent KES 14,000 to pay the balance that was left after my son cleared up his secondary education. He had not obtained the certificate due to pending balances. Currently, he had been issued the certificate after paying the balance. He is yet to join college this year. I am so grateful because GiveDirectly enabled me to pay this and my son is also happy. I bought food and other household items that we did not have. The rest of the money I saved was KES 30,000 for my son who is joining college. I will use the money to pay his college fees and accommodation. I am so grateful because GiveDirectly has improved our living standards and enabled us to fulfill our dreams.

The moment I received the transfer I felt so happy. I remember it was around 9am. I was on my farm cultivating. I had left my phone at home charging. I heard my neighbors celebrating that they have received the transfer from GiveDirectly. I rushed home to confirm if I have received the money. There was a message confirming that I have received money from GiveDirectly. I felt so happy because I have never received such amount of money before. I immediately inform my family members and they were happy too. We really celebrated that day. I knew I would be able to buy a dairy cow to cut the daily cost of buying milk. This was so costly for me. I am so happy because GiveDirectly has enabled us to own assets.

The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have purchased a dairy cow. I used to buy milk daily and this was so costly for me. I depend on casual jobs and small scale farming. The amount of money that I get through this is so small and it's only for household basic needs and school fees for my children. I had no extra money to buy a dairy cow. Sometimes when I do not have the money my children could not take the breakfast. This was so demoralizing and stressful. Currency I have a dairy cow and I get enough milk for the family. My children never missed the breakfast like before. I sell the surplus milk to earn an income to meet other household items. I have devoted much of my time on this amazing dairy project. I have hope that I will be able to improve this breed. I am so happy because I have a dairy cow.

I spent KES 36,000 to purchase a dairy cow. I used to buy milk daily and this was so costly for me because I do not have a continuous source of income. Currently I have cut the cost. I paid school fees for my children in various school and they were able to study well without being sent home. I purchased some iron sheet waiting for the second transfer to start the construction process. I purchased a phone for my son who is yet to join college early next year. The rest of the money I bought food and clothes for my children. I am so grateful for the support because GiveDirectly has changed our living standards.
