"The joyed and excitement I felt the day I received my transfer message can not be explained. Presently, family and I are living in my Mother's house sharing limited space with other family members. This living condition had not been favourable for my kids and I that are also sharing only a room. Building our own house had been a serious burning issue for me. I am a petite trader who trade in garrie, one of our traditional food. Sadly the earnings from said business was only enough to feed my family and take care of some of our daily needs with nothing to save for building a house. Henceforth, with my transfer from GiveDirectly, I am planning on using the money to built our own and spacious house."

"My recent home is in a terrible disposition, it's not reliable neither comfortable for living. The rooftop leaked all over when the rain comes down. I will use portion of my transfer from GiveDirectly to buy zinc and change the roof of this house from thatched, and that will bring me the most joy."

"I seriously appreciate Givedirectly for coming in my life. I never received such assistance but i got this money at the moment I needed money to sent my children back to school. Givedirectly process went well."

"I bought fifteen bags of cement and four loads of sand in preparation to start my house project."

"I used KES 45000 to buy one dairy cow and used the remaining amount of KES 10000 to buy food and other basic household needs for my family. I also remained with some amount that helped me to gather for medical bills for my child who has been ailing for sometime and as such needed urgent medical attention. The decision to buy a dairy cow wa informed by the fact that I did not have any dairy cow having sold all of them to pay school fees for my children. It was so embarrassing for an elderly man like me to have no livestock in the compound whereas this would be the only source of income for me."

"GiveDirectly does everything well and I will become a house owner very soon because of what GiveDirectly did for me."

"GiveDirectly is doing everything very well."

"Well, I want to thank GiveDirectly firstly for sending me money. I have worked as hard laborer just to support my family. So when GiveDirectly give me money, I was very happy."

"In my opinion GiveDirectly should continue with their Free Cash transferred program, because it is reliable and secure."
