Feedback from the elderly beneficiaries, as well as by observers in their neighbourhoods, shows that even the modest pension provided by Kwa Wazee makes a significant difference in the lives of the supported grandmothers as well as the children in their care.

A permanent evaluation of the project is also designed to show how a system of pensions for the impoverished elderly could be implemented in other regions which are severely affected by HIV/AIDS.
