Wiliter
received a $469 second payment.
"I spent most of the recent transfer money on paying school fees for my daughter who is in her second year of secondary education. I spent KES 12000 on her school fees. She had been sent home due to failure to clear her school fees. I was not able to do so before with the first transfer money because I decided to first clear the balances for my two sons who are currently in their final year of secondary education. The school had demanded that the balances for the final year students be cleared completely for them to continue with their studies smoothly. Paying school fees has always been my biggest challenge since I do not have a stable source of income. I only depend on my business of vegetable vending to raise money to pay school fees for my four children. I am thus so much thankful to GiveDirectly for the support that the gave me."
