"The new goal that I didn't have before I received the transfer is purchasing a motorcycle. This was not in my daily plans because I didn't had the money to buy it. Currently I have a motorcycle and I used it as a taxi business. This earns me an income to support my family."

"The moment I received my transfer, I knew that I will be able to accomplish the goals that I had, it was very early in the morning, I was still in bed when I was woken up by a loud ring tone, upon checking my phone, I saw a Mpesa notification, I was not expecting money from any showing that I had received money from anyone that morning, I was curious to know who had sent me money that early, upon confirming I realized that I had received money from GiveDirectly, I was so overwhelmed with joy, this was the best news that I had received in a long time."

"It was around 4pm while from a prayer meeting when I alighted from my motorcycle when I checked my phone and saw two new messages. On checking them out, one was KES55000 from GiveDirectly and I couldn't be happier. Immediately I looked for a tractor in order to plant maize the next day."

"I have a wife and two children who are about to start schooling. Currently I am a motorcycle taxi rider in the village, a job that earns me about KES 700 daily. Could have been good income for a villager, but I still have a loan to repay because I bought my motorcycle on credit. Getting this money would make it possible for me to also undertake other projects alongside like building a bigger house. I would love to have a separate room for my children so that I do not have to share a single room. I strongly feel this will mean privacy for me and freedom for my children."

"In 2021, September was my best month. Finally, I would own my motorcycle. The thought of being self-employed not having to hire someone else motorcycle was exciting. When I came home with it I could see the excitement also on my son's face and I quickly took him for a ride to celebrate the moment as father and son." (Occupation: Motorcycle or bicycle taxi)

"My husband has been using a bicycle to go to his work. Last month (December) he got a second hand motorcycle at a cost of KES 20000. This has helped him reach his places of work early and without getting axhausted. The asset we have in the family brought happiness to me."
