The remaining amount of money, I bought sufficient foodstuffs for my family and some other household items."

"Upon receiving my first transfer from GiveDirectly, I spend a large portion of 35000 KES on buying a lactating cow and a calf, this was necessary to our household since we had been buying milk for such a long time and this was the only way we could stop it. I also bought ten chicken for rearing each 350 KES. I invested in poultry so that I would have some eggs for sale and have some money for buying other family necessities. Part of the remaining amount, I spend to buy two sacks of maize worth KES 7000, I also spend KES 5000 on ploughing a piece of land and buying some farm inputs and the rest I gave to my husband to boost his business in a food kiosk which he runs in a nearby shopping centre."

The remaining amount, I bought sufficient foodstuffs for my family and some clothes for myself and other family members."

I also bought some chicken as my living assets that I can depend on my just in case I have financial difficulties. The remaining amount of money, I used to buy some enough foodstuffs for my family."
