"I spent my third transfer on 26 iron sheets that I used to construct a semi-permanent house where we currently live a healthier life. I decided to construct the house since the former one was too tiny to accommodate all my household members-it was only of 6 iron sheets and we were afraid of catching airborne diseases among us such as TB."

"After receiving my first transfer, I have gained self esteem since I have added some additional land for cultivation and looking towards building a Permanent house for my family."

"I have used my third transfer to renovate my main house. The former one had a leaky roof and therefore it was really drenching on us and our belongings; I replaced the old iron sheets with the new ones and then plastered the house with sand and cement."

"My daughter had passed Kenya Certificate of Primary Education exams with flying colours as a result she got a calling letter to join one of the precious secondary in the area, Migingo Girls but unfortunately, I could not afford till I received the third transfer that helped me facilitate the process-she is now in school pursuing her dream."

"Initially, l had a huge school fees burden; my child who is currently in form two had a problem of proceeding with his education when it reached a time that I couldn't clear the whole of form one fees, which I did with part of the third transfer. Again, I lived in a very poor house-it had turned old and I was afraid it could collapse on us anytime and therefore I buit a new one of 30 iron sheets in my home where we currrently live more comfortably, with the remaining part of the of the money."

"I am currently educating 7 children and this is a very huge burden in my household since we don't have a stable source of income hence when I received my third transfer, I used the whole of it to pay their school fees as a result, they were able to stay in school and sit for their end year examinations which they would haven't if I would have never received the money."

"When I received my third transfer, I started a charcoal business that has currently offered me some degree of financial freedom. Since I separated from my husband, life has been so hard due to lack of any source of income hence the business would be the ultimate solution in my life."

"My life is different in that I will be saving the amount I have been spending on land hire (0.25 acres) for production of maize and vegetables.Two , the land I have bought is bigger(0.5 acres), and I intend to grow maize for family consumption and vegetables, capsicum and tomatoes for sale. I have been making 1,500 KES as profit per season of 3 months, but this time round I look forward to doubling my sales and profit to at least 3,000 KES per season since the land is mine and it is bigger.Thank you."

"I was a school drop out. I scored an A- (minus) but I couldn't manage to continue with my education since I never had an ID to ask for financial assitance from the governement and therefore when I started receiving money from Give Directly, I enrolled for an Engeneering course in a local university hence the third transfer helped me pay some part of second year fees."

"I spent part of my third transfer on fishing nets, but unfortunately there is not much gain currently since the fish in the Lake is depleted and we often have no catch, resulting to no income.Nevertheless, I am very grateful to GD for the financial support."
