"I am a farmer and a businesswoman specialising in making traditional guards. Upon receiving my transfer, I saw it fit to utilise it in building a decent house for my family. This is because the one that we were living in was grass-thatched and old. Therefore I used KES 31500 in buying building materials. I then saved the rest of the money for the labour charges. I am so happy that finally, we will be having an iron sheet house, which was like a mere dream to us since we had no money. we are grateful for the support that lifted our lives amazingly."

"I had gone to the neighbouring village to visit my relative who was not feeling well. Suddenly I had my phone ringing, Upon checking, I saw a Mpesa message showing that I had received a sum of KES 55,000 from Segovia technology. Since the name was not familiar, I decided not to share the news with anyone but rather went back home. On reaching home I showed the message to my son who confirmed that the money was from GiveDirectly. I was so overwhelmed with joy, I was also relieved because I knew that the goals that I had identified would be fulfilled."
