"In my opinion GiveDirectly does well by giving money to the poor in the community to build better houses. I do not find anything that GiveDirectly did not do well."

"My life is different than how it would have been if I never received the transfers in that I was able to pay school fees for my children in various schools. I spent KES 35,000 for my children in secondary school. This gave me peace of mind because I knew my children will not be sent home to collect the school fees. I do my chores peacefully and ensure that I save some money to pay for the next academic term. My children used to be sent home and this was affecting their performance. I depend on small scale farming and I was not in a position to pay school fees on time. My children were so demoralized because they could spent more time at home. I didn't had money to pay immediately whenever they are sent. This was affecting their performance. Currently I am so happy because GiveDirectly has enabled me to educate my children and ensure that their future bright."

"I spent KES 23,000 of the first transfer on purchasing a heifer. I had always wished to own a dairy cow. I buy milk everyday and it's so costly for me because I do not have a continuous source of income. I depend on casual jobs in the village. I also paid KES I0,000 for my children in various schools. The rest of the money I bought food and clothes for my children. I am so happy because GiveDirectly has changed our living standard."

"I spent KES 10,000 on the second transfer on purchasing three goats. This is the best investment because goats reproduce twice per year. I spent some money to build them a house. I also bought sofa set seats at a cost of KES 15,000. This has made me feel great whenever I had visitors because I have a decent seats. I also fence my farm to prevent neighbor's cows from destroying my crops. The rest of the money I bought food and clothes for my children."

"I spent KES 30,000 of the money I received from GiveDirectly on paying school fees for my son who was joining form one this year. I paid for one academic year. This will give me a chance to continue saving some amount to pay for the following academic year. I also spent KES 10,000 on bedding and furniture.

"My life is different than how it would have been if I never received the transfers in that I have bought a solar panels. My children were using torch to do their homework and assignments. This was so challenging because whenever I had no money to buy torch battery they could not do the assignment. I depend on small scale farming and and the harvest that I get annually is is only for consumption. I didn't had any savings to buy the solar system. Cooking during the night was a challenge because I had only one torch and at the same time my children wanted to used it. Currently I have a solar panels. There is lighting everything in the house. I do my chores peacefully and my children do there homework without any disturbance. I have the security light outside which I didn't had before. I am so happy because I no longer buy torch Battery with was so costly. I am abe to save some money to pay school fees for my children. GiveDirectly has changed our living standard."

"The biggest hardship I have faced in my life is lack of a descent shelter for my family. Living in a house without a door has made my life miserable. My own security in my own house is endangered."
