"I am planning on spending the money on completed the building project my late brother started."

"As a teacher, I spend most days with my students. I was in class one morning when I heard a beep on my phone. I became curious and when I checked, I could not believe my eyes. I had received KES 55,000 from GiveDirectly. I could not wait to pursue the dreams that I had put on hold for lack of money."

"I went to seyah town, in search of network when my phone alarmed. My husband hurriedly checked the phone only to find out Givedirectly send me money. At that moment, i was very happy! and started giving thanks to God. I pray to God with joy everyday of life. I woke up with a joyful heart because, Givedirectly has changed my life."

"This transfer from GD has been a blessing. My family has been in living in a tiny grass-thatched house, that can barely accommodate the four of us. It also has a leaky roof, which means we have had to endure cold nights during the rainy season. With this transfer, however, we have managed to buy construction material and begin the construction of our new home. I am so excited to see my children get to live in a decent, modern house. Thanks, GD!"

"Before Give Directly could come in with the transfer, my family and I had been sleeping in the kitchen room because we don't have a house on our own. Upon receiving my transfer, my brother and I were able to complete our house project so that our wives and children will have a good sleeping place."

"For the past years, I have been living in my friend house and I had no means of becoming an owner of a house because I could not afford the cost of building. But since I started receiving my transfer, I have been impowered to build my own house."

"I bought cement, paint, whitewash to complete the house and I also paid my grandchildren tuition."

"If im eligible to receive money from GiveDirectly,I want to pay workers to work on my farm, build a new house and pay my children school fees."
