"I am a proud owner of a dairy cow and this is the biggest difference in my daily life as I had not been able to afford it all these years due to financial constraints. Because of this, I will no longer buy milk throughout the year as I used to before as I will be alternating its lactating period with the one that I already had as this will ensure a constant supply of milk throughout. In addition, I will be able to meet our basic needs on time when it calves as I will be selling some of the milk and use the money to achieve this. I am so grateful that the organization allowed me to better my life by giving us unconditional cash."

"I had desired to build a more spacious house for the last twelve years but had not been able to achieve this due to a lack of finances. This is because whenever I got the money and decided that I would use it in buying building materials, my children would be sent back home the same day or the next day. This usually made me alter my plans so that they would resume their studies. With the transfer that I received, I was able to build a more spacious house and I am happy since we will be moving into it very soon."

"It was around 9 AM when I was at bush looking after my goats then I heard my phone ringing continuously. At first, I thought it was an incoming call and after checking, I realized that it was a message notification. I decided to check its contents only to realize it was an Mpesa message from GiveDirectly. I was overwhelmed with joy because I could finally achieve my goals. I even decided to rush back home and break the news to my other family members. We happily celebrated and thanked God for blessing us abundantly."

""Over the years I've been struggling in sending my children to school. Upon recieving this cash transfer, I intend to use some to sponsor my children in school. The balance money will be used to complete my house project in Kanweaken"."
