"I was at High ridge Estate in Nairobi county washing clothes for a client. It was around 9:00 AM when I checked my phone as I had kept it away while I was working. That is when I saw the Mpesa message and truly I believed that Give Directly is an organization that can be trusted for keeping their word. I went back to work with a lot of excitement in my heart. I informed my husband about it in the evening when I get to the house and we immediately knew we would spend the transfers to pay school fees."

"I had not seen the message at all on the day that the transfers came in. I had just woken up when I received a call from a friend of mine who asked me if I had received my transfers. I did not have any idea that the transfers were sent on that day; i must have still been asleep when the message came in. I checked my phone at that moment and I saw the message. I was really happy. I had to confirm again that the message was from Give Directly just to be sure that it was not money that was sent to my phone by mistake. I was so excited and I immediately started to think of how I would spend the money."
