The business has also supported people in the village since they no longer walk a long distance in search of plastic chairs for hire incase of any function."

I am happy because they are now learning without any difficulties. I also now have my own cattle that I will be able to sell when I need to pay school fee for my children. "

"If I could not have received the transfer I could not have managed to invest in a lager scale farming as i did by hiring tractor to till my land using give directly's money, I could have just in used my own hand and till a very small portion. But now I am very happy I have managed to invest in a larger scale farming and sure of getting enough produce."

This has enabled me to have enough time to look for next terms school fees whole my children study without being interrupted by being sent back home."

I had started the foundation when I received my first transfer and I had no hope of continuing building it before GiveDirectly came for enrolment. I am now glad since I am almost completing building it since the only part remaining is furnishing it. Had it not have been for the transfers, I would not have been able to continue building it."

Because of this, we now enjoy our privacy and my house is big enough and I can my neighbors children and come and sleep over at my house. Also it enabled me to do some farming on time and I am now hoping that I will have a good harvest that will last us till the next harvesting season."

Due to this, they now sleep comfortably without any disturbances like before when they used to be sleeping in the kitchen. I am also always proud to receive visitors any time since I know that there is a place where they will sleep at comfortably."

"I am now a different person from how I would have been had I never received my transfers. This is because I am now a proud owner of a dairy cow and my family has enough milk for consumption and for sale. I have been using this money to meet some of our basic needs on time without depending on my spouse."
