"I plan to make business and send my daughter to school with this money."

"If I'm qualify to get this money, I will definitely be able to send my children to school and build myself a decent house, lastly I will establish a business."

"With my family, we had been living in a small house enough to accommodate just my children and the four grandchildren whom I have been staying with. Constructing a bigger one had been in our plans and had to effect it right after receiving the first transfer. With this support, I spent KES30000 on obtaining iron sheets, building poles, and also paying the labor charges on the construction work. I am glad that the progress is so good that I am expecting us to start using the new house early next month once we are done with the interior finishing. I also paid KES 10000 on school fees for my son currently in college, obtained foodstuff worth KES 2300, clothed my four grandchildren with part of the remaining, and saved the little amount since I needed to keep checking the requirements on the construction site. I am glad to see the progress of all the projects I initiated, and I am hoping that I will be able to accomplish all and even start new ones with the second transfer."

"The instant slash of the cost of buying milk after buying a good breed of a cow has brought the biggest difference in my daily life. I had been working extra hard in my daily chores but unfortunately, I could not save since I had been spending the extra coins on buying milk daily. I am glad that the cow that I bought has been providing enough milk for my family of two and also a surplus that we can sell to the neighborhood to earn some income."

"It was early in the morning as I had just started the casual work I was doing on my neighbor's farm. With the message alert that I received, I could not hesitate to check it up. The information in the message was so exciting that I could not resist celebrating it loudly. I thanked God for enabling GiveDirectly to deliver on the promise they had given us. We had been laying down plans with my family on how best we would spend once it lands in our account. Throughout that day, I had to keep working as I needed to later get home and plan with my family on when to start initiating the projects that we had already planned."

"I was with my spouse and other members of the family when I received an alert that confirmed the receipt of my first transfer. The moment I received the message, I could not react to it that first but after another message that came a minute after, I got curious and had to confirm what exactly it was. I was so excited on confirming that the money I had been expecting was finally in my acount. I informed my family that was equally excited. All through that day, every face in the village was covered with a wide smile and every talk could not end without hearing great words of appreciation. I also thanked God as we were finalizing our plans with my spouse and had to withdraw the next day as all I needed to purchase was not in the immediate shopping center."

"My current challenge right now is money problem, I do not have money to do thing that I want to do and because of that I am not in school and parents don't have money too so that's my main challenges for now."

"My greatest challenge right now is that I do not have money that will enable me have a place on my own. For this reason my mom and I always get into fight and her problem with me is that I am longer a child to live under the same roof with she and her husband, I should move."
