"The goals I had for this second transfer are the ones that I had been having since the census stage when GiveDirectly Field Officers came to talk to us about the program. Apart from the shopping for food stuffs for my family which actually took a huge chunk of the transfer I received, I had a business that I had purposed to revive and replenish. This was because I had been relying on my other business of cutting trees and burning charcoal to sell, which hardly raised enough for me to be able to achieve those goals. I was so grateful to get the financial assistance as this little kiosk business replaced and relieved me from the tedious and tiresome work of cutting trees and burning charcoal to sell."

"In my opinion GiveDirectly did everything well, I was personally able to settle my children's school fees arrears, I got a house as well as food. Most of us got livestock as well which is an occupation and a source of food, especially milk. Everything was done well, and I see no problems or anything that GiveDirectly doesn't or didn't do right."

"I am personally so happy and grateful for I got the assistance and help I needed to address the challenges I was facing. I was able to settle my children's school fees arrears and I am currently in the process of building a bigger house for their sake so that they can live and study comfortably. I am so grateful to GiveDirectly, and I don't see anything that it didn't or doesn't do well. Everything to me was done so well, and so many of us were helped."

"When I withdraw my money, I bought one and the half lot of land, two bundle of zinc and six pack of nails to build my new house, then I pay my five children school fees."

"I started a new business from my most recent, something very rare in my community. I'm now selling Rice and flour by cups and kilo. To crown it all, I bought more bundles of zinc to add to the ones I already have in preparation for my new house project."

"Empowering us with cash we have not seen before is more than enough good. I'm grateful to GiveDirectly for this. Changing our lives from one level to another positively is immense and I can only be grateful. To think of anything GiveDirectly isn't doing well will be like looking for a needle in a hay stack."

"I spent KES 27, 000 of my second transfer to renovate my house by constructing an additional room for my 5 children. The house that we were owning earlier was very small to fully accommodate both me and my children. We all shared the same room which was very shameful considering they are now grown up. I also bought a new mattress for KES 2,900 this was for my kids, they were using old sacks as bedding something that made them frequently complain of body pain. In addition, I purchase two goats at a cost of KES 6200 to boost my livestock rearing."

"In my opinion, GiveDirectly did well in sending the cash to every household in our village. In addition, we were trained on how to spend the transfer wisely. I feel there is nothing that it did do well."

"In my opinion, GiveDirectly did so well for helping poor household in our village through sending cash transfer directly to our phone. In addition, the right to decide on how to spent the transfer lies in the hands of the household which was a great thing."

"I will use my third transfer to improve the house I am living in presently because of its bad condition, I will also buy food with some of the transfer and the remaining amount will be saved for our future goal achievement."
