"I start by thanking GD for the financial boost because our family life has significantly changed. My life is indeed different than it would have been if I never received the transfer because GD cash has greatly help us resolve the otherwise regular family wrangles that revolved around matters finance. Unlike before when I could hardly meet the daily needs of my family, I am currently more confident that I can offer more support and care to the family with regards to basic needs and demands. We have adequate food for consumption and funds for running up the varied household needs and demands for instance paying school fees and purchasing clothes."

"Receiving this money means i will be able to complete building my house as well as buy household items. The second transfer will enable me to buy two dairy cattle which will act as my source of income since i will constantly supply milk within my neighborhood meaning I will never lack money to pay school fees for my two children who are in high School as well as provide them with their daily needs."

"My life is different in many ways because I had no proper house, I had a leaky house that I shared with all my children meaning there was no privacy. I also managed to buy a donkey that I am currently using for transporting peoples commodities to the market for pay and I earn cash that I use in buying food and paying school fees to my children, y children no longer get sick frequently because our house is now warm and safe unlike the old one that exposed us to harsh weather of extreme cold nights and I no longer have to borrow money from friends and relatives to take my children to the hospital. My income have improved and I am able to feed my family very well unlike when I used to work long hours in peoples farms and earn too little money to meet our daily needs."

"Receiving this money means i will pay school fees for my children education then the balance i will renovate our house."

"The biggest hardship i have faced is difficulty in paying my children's school fees."

"The biggest hardship i have faced in my life is the burden of upbringing the children single handedly and paying school fees."

"My life is now different in that I can keep my children in school. I had no means to pay for their school fees. I can now keep them in school and be able to pay for their school fees in future, with the proceeds from milk that I will receive from the cow that I will purchase with the transfers. I am grateful to Give Directly."

"I spend my second transfer to pay school fees for my child who was joining college, this always make smile since am sure that i gave my children quality education who will help me in future when i grow old. I also used part of the transfer to buy one more cow so as to supply enough milk for my family. The remaining part of the transfer I used to buy goats which is my great investment and I will later sell them and use the money to pay school fees for my children in secondary school and one who is in college. Thank you Give Directly for the unconditional cash transfers."

"I had an ear problem which needed an operation the time I received my first transfers from GiveDirectly and I decided to use part of it for my treatment. I had sold all the cows I had when my children were still in school in order to use the money in paying their school fees. Due to this, I spent the remaining amount to buy two calves to act as assets which will act as a permanent mark of GiveDirectly and after they have increased in number, I will share them to my grandchildren and tell them about this help I received from GD."

"In my opinion GD does well by giving unconditional cash transfers and I was able to pay school fees for my child who was joining form one.I do not see anything that Give Directly does not do well."
