Nzingo
received a $443 initial payment.
"The main difference that is vivid is my stable business. Initially, things were not adding up since it was on the verge of collapsing but after the transfer I restocked it. Again the second investment of livestock keeping gives me an assurance of good life ahead courtesy of GiveDirectly."

Joseph
received a $443 initial payment.
"The biggest difference in my daily life is the significant change I am experiencing as a result of my second marriage. My spouse's planning assistance is incredible in that we share ideas and set priorities together. I am grateful to GiveDirectly for the generous support of a cash transfer, which has allowed me to start a new family after my divorce from the first wife."

Kizi
received a $443 initial payment.
"I hardly ever get messages late at the evening, so when I received a message notification around 5 p.m., I was curious. When I checked, I was overjoyed to see that Give Directly had sent me the transfer as promised. I thanked God for the gift support from GiveDirectly so that that was going to transform many households. I was overjoyed because I knew I would finally be able to complete all the set goals. "

"Give Directly is doing so well by helping people financially. Were it not for your money, I wouldn't be where I'am right now. Your transparency is also top notch hence you do not discriminate anyone, may God bless you exceedingly. I actually find nothing to improve on."
