"With the money I earn per month as a primary school teacher, I have been unable to fully sustain my family 12. With 27 years in service as a primary school teacher, I still have nothing to show given the burden of responsibility that has become unbearable. Receiving this money from GiveDirectly means I will be able to supplement my income source with a business. I am planning to start a petrol selling business in the village. My compound is close to our nearest trading center. With a lot of youth engaged in motorcycle riding, I believe this will be the ideal place to start my business. I already constructed a structure in the trading center and this is advantageous in that I won't incur the extra costs of renting a shop. I will save the profits from the business to take my two children to university."

"I would like to build a house for myself to be able to jumpstart my life. I'm currently living with my mother and sleeping in my brother's house. This condition makes it impossible to marry my fiance to whom I have been engaged for about six months. I have been meaning to finalize on everything but I still don't have somewhere to take her and means to take care of her. For that reason, I would also like to buy a motorcycle for taxi operations so that I can get a source of income." (Occupation: Motorcycle or bicycle taxi)

"It's been getting harder by the day to afford food for my family of seven effectively in this times of draught. As a motorcycle taxi operator it's hard to make more than 1000 KES per day because the industry is flooded. A lot of young men like me joined in after losing their jobs during covid19 pandemic. That has increased the number of riders tremendously as compared to the number of client's available in the village. I'm sometimes forced to ferry charcoal bags which is banned and can attract legal problems on top of being dangerous considering the bad roads we have to use."

"RE: My greatest desire was completing my motorbike payment which seems actually impossible because traffic isn't doing pretty well here. Moreover, I was often calculating when will over eight persons complete their payment before my turn. but when givedirectly send my transfer it was amazing because i could finally clear the payment of my motorbike, something I would have taken a year or more to do was don't a second which am overly grateful to givedirectly for. Today, because of givedirectly transfer i now own a motorbike which to me is an investment, am now riding for myself and i have even started saving to build my house soon."
