"My life is different in that, I'm now very happy and healthy because I do not have stress. I can now pay school fees for my children not like before when I would get stressed up because I had source of income. In addition I'm currently sleeping in my permanent house. I would not have stopped sleeping in a leaking grass thatched hurt if I never received my transfer."

"My life is different than it would have been if I never received the transfer because I have not yet been diagnosed with Ulcers due over thinking on how to get money. My daughter is battling with Sickle cells and the father abandoned me and the child so treating this child has been a hustle. But from the time I got my transfer I have been able to get her treatment."

"My life is now different in that, I have been able to acquire land to live in. Previously, I never had enough land not even money to buy another plot for myself."

"I plan to make savings together with my family members and the amount that we will get will go into buying a cow that I know will give birth in the future and we will benefit by getting milk from the animal. Apart from that I know I will make money by selling out the calves once it starts giving birth. The cash will go a long way in sustaining the family in the future."

"My life is different in that I am now making my own money from the motorcycle that am ridding as a boda boda . I go back home with UGX 25,000 on a good day and UGX 15,000 when the business is not good . Am now able to meet my home expenses."

"My life is different than if I had not received cash transfer from GiveDirectly in that, I have acquired a plot of land that I intend to construct my home. Before I acquired a plot of land, we were staying in a very crowded place with a lot of moral decay and family wrangles among households. I am happy because that will soon be history."

"My family is now decent and happy compared to the past when I had no money. The cash transfers have enabled me purchase clothing and basic needs for my family. secondly, the cash transfer enabled me to purchase a pair of oxen. When the rainy season sets in, I will have enough work force to till and cultivate my farmlands thus improving my agricultural outputs. I will have enough food to feed my family the dry season."

"I expect that my life will be different six months from now because I will have been able to buy a new solar powered panel that I will use to illuminate my house. The one I have right now is too small and cannot be enough to illuminate my house appropriately."

"My life is now different in that, I have been able to marry and do a short course with the help of these transfers. In the past, I never had money to achieve all of them."

"When I received this transfer I was so overjoyed. I have never held nor seen such an amount of money in my entire life. I couldn't believe they were all ours to spend. This was a relief especially after we had exhausted almost all the money from our savings and even borrowed our neighbours to cater for funeral expenses for my mother and niece who drowned in a river. It was a sigh of relief to finally get back on track in life."
