"My life is much better at the moment unlike before receiving the transfers. At the moment I own three dairy cows unlike before when I used to own none. All of them are about to calf. They are the best breeds and hence I expect over 10 liters of milk a day. Dairy farming has really kept me busy unlike before when I was just Idling around. The hope of getting income out of dairy farming really makes me happy since I will be able to able to meet my family's needs more easily and effectively."

"My life is so relaxed and relieved ever since I received the cash transfers. The cash transfers were spent on treating my child who had a complicated orthopaedic condition. This required alot of money and thank God, GiveDirectly sent the cash transfers. I would have lost my child because at that time we did not have money to carry out the numerous medical tests and checkups. However, my spouse abandoned me because of the pressure and tensions at home. I decided to relocate back to my parents. I am glad that GiveDirectly still sent me the cash transfers that are helping me to date."

"I am very happy that I sleep on a comfortable mattress and in a nice iron roofed house. Before GiveDirectly launched, I was sleeping in an old tiny grass thatched hut and I could not afford even medical treatment. The GiveDirectly cash transfers have elevated my standards of living."

"My life is different now in that, I have been in position to own livestock which I could not have bought on my own had I not received transfer for GiveDirectly. I did not have any source of income which could have enabled me acquire all these livestock at once because I have in total five livestock. These transfer have improved my standards of living because I now have new household items that's to say, mattress and clothes Therefore I sleep and dress well. Prior, To getting these transfers I didn't have enogh clothes and I used to sleep on a very old mattress. Secondly, People used to laugh at me because at my age I did not have livestock of my own. "

"Receiving this money means that I will be able to build a bigger iron roofed house for my family. "

"Receiving this money means that I will be able to build an iron roofed house. "
