"In the next six months, I plan to build an iron-roofed house which I have been looking forward to. It has always been in my dream but due to low income from farming and casual work, I was not able to. With GD transfers, I will finally achieve the goal."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I will have improved harvest which will help me meet my family needs well. This will reduce the struggles I go through since I do not have a stable source of income. When I have a good harvest, I will have enough to feed my family and sell the rest to start a business to boost my income."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I would be in a position to support my family financially with a lot of ease compared to before. I am working extra hard to invest in poultry business so that I have an additional source of income, which will help me get an additional source of daily income."

"I am still looking for funds to pump in my business in the next six month to enable me to get a better daily profit. I have confidence that I will get a better profit if I succeed in this.

"In the next six months, I am hoping I will have bought a motorbike and given hired it out as a taxi to generate some revenue at the end of each day. This will be able to comfortably service my daily and monthly payments."

"I do not expect any change because I am still paying school fees for my children since it's my priority."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have bought ten goats. I used to have goats before at an early age after which I sold them and bought a two acres piece of land. This was my wish and dream to start it all over again because I benefited through this. I had a neighbor who had children in school and we made an agreement that I will be paying school fees for his two sons and to be given a piece of land in return, I did not have a source of income and I used to sell the goats after they had reproduced. Currently, I have ten goats and when they reproduce in the next two years I will sell them to buy a dairy cow and also pay school fees for my children in the near future and I will have no stress at all. I am so happy because of GiveDirectly it has changed our living standard and given us hope."

"The moment I received my money I felt so happy. That night I was not feeling well and I did not hear when the message was sent. I was at the shop that morning and I heard people saying that GiveDirectly has sent money. I went back"

"The moment I received my money I felt so happy considering that I had never received such an amount of money before. I remember very well it was early in the morning when I received an unusual message on my phone. I was lost for words when I checked the content of the message and found out that I had received a sum of KES 55000. My spouse and children were equally happy and could not keep calm at that moment."
