"I spent my third transfer on a water pump and a power generate which am using to water my farm produce, with my agribusiness am able to provide school fees for my children and food for my family."

"The biggest hardship which am facing currently is poor accommodation. since my roof is made of grass ,the house leaks when it rains and the water enters inside the house."

"I am a horticultural farmer, so when I received my third transfer, I bought a generator for pumping water from the lake. I do not have to wait for the rains given that I bought a generator for pumping water to my crops. The remaining I spent on buying clothes and food for my consumes."

"I spent my third transfer on plastering my 3 room house for 47,000 KES since if I never did that the mud walls would be again washed off by rain water and cause us all inconveniences."

"I spent my third transfer on building a decent spacious newly iron sheet roofed house which accommodates my family members comfortably and having this house gives me a peace of mind as I can harvest rain water from the gutter hence accessibility to clean water has been enhanced as opposed to before the transfer when my previous house was grassed thatched and leaky .I also paid school fees for my child who is in high school."

"When I received my third transfer, I had plans of financing my spouse to pay my dowry but since I was expectant, such a thing could not happen. We therefore opted to invest the amount that was meant for the same in livestock. We purchased a total of 10 goats with intentions that we would sell them to purchase cows for dowry payment. In addition to that, we purchased 2 donkeys to help us collect water from the lake. I resided in a very dry area where water was a very big challenge. People walked several miles in search for water which created a very big advantage for those who owed donkeys since they could easily use them to collect water from the lake and supply the entire village. My donkeys were therefore purchased to not only supply me with water for my own consumption but instead be used commercially. I am happy that I am able to collect some amount of money from the water supply come the end of the day."

"I used the last transfer to build a small kitchen bought sofa set seats and table I did this because I can remember well when the team from Give Directly came I had no way to welcome them even offer a seat because I had none even utensils to offer a cup of water it was so embarrassing but I now have bought utensils with the transfer."

"The biggest hardship which i face is povety which is caused by too much rains .which destroys crops due to water logging."

"I spent my third transfer on paying school fees for my child who in the university and now I am happy since she has ample time to study in school as she is not being sent home for school fees arrears while school is in session. I also bought some water pumps to lessen my work of sprinkling water in my farm manually because my occupation is farming and the yields are doing good hence I believe from the harvest I will be able to continue paying school fees for my child who is in her third year in the university."

"I spent my third transfer on paying Secondary school fee for our child to support his consistent learning (10,000 KES), 3 bags of dry corn for food ( 9,000 KES) since we did not harvest much as our land is not fertile. I also spent on plastering parts of our house to protect the walls from being washed off by rain water. The balance I spent building a kitchen (27,000 KES) that we needed badly."
