Where I live is a kitchen house that I built with thatched-roof. Because I didn't had money then. All I wanted was to have a place to sleep. Since I got enrolled on GD's program, I have this desired of building a new and spacious house with my recent transfer. The money in saving will be used to pay for the workmanship of my house construction work."

"My heart is in livestock keeping. My goal is to have 300 layers so that I can rear them on large scale. I'm sure they'll lay eggs and multiply in number. Layers always come in handy in times of emergencies. This can cost me utmost kshs 100,000. I also want to start grocery business. This is because nobody sells vegetables within my locality. I'm sure it will give me good income since the market is readily available. The capital I need to start this is kshs 30,000."

"These transfers have been so helpful to me. This second one was sent when I was really wishing to have livestock. So I took kshs 31,500 and bought 7 goats. 3 males and 4 female ones. Infact they have already given birth to 2 more. I'm glad I can sell them quickly when need arises. I paid school fees my 2 children who are in secondary and primary schools that is kshs 15,000 and kshs 5,000 respectively. I bought clothes worth kshs 8,000 for my children so that they can enjoy the feeling of owning new clothes. Finally I spent kshs 3,500 on maize flour, rice and wheat flour."

"In the coming years, I hope to complete my house building process . I will plaster my house with concrete cement and roof it with guarantee zinc. Thanks to Givedirectly for the financial support. I couldn't have decided on building another house in the coming year with the absence of money. I believe that pretty soon, my dream to build new house will soon come to pass."
