"Sometime last month my husband was involved in a motorcycle accident that broke his hand. He is indisposed and still under medication, he hardly uses his hand to do any work.He used to engage in casual jobs and at the time of the accident he was coming from Kapkwen market where he was from doing the casual job. He is incapacitated and this has deprived us of our daily bread since he is our breadwinner.There has been some slight improvement after undergoing treatment at Longisa Referral Hospital but he is still recuperating at home awaiting the next appointment."

"Our biggest challenge is money. We don't have money for food and other basic needs. We fail to make money because here's too much sun here that we fail to yield anything from agriculture because of the same. We are left with casual work which is not easy to find and also pays too little."

"My major challenge is food. I fail to work because I don't have food. I planted soya beans but because of the weather it didn't do well. I wanted to use that money to establish myself a home. My family has this land that was just idle so i planned on developing it. But with no money from the soya, i left to live in the shack. I often with no food and that limits my working since hard labour requires a full stomach. At the moment, I go out to find casual work to have money for food."

"My biggest challenge is money. Because of no money, i fail to feed and clothe my family. My husband does a bicycle taxi business but it's tricky here in the village because people just walk and not pay for transport. He comes home with maybe a dollar or 50 cents and that's what we use to buy food with. It's not enough for out family hence living in poverty."

"Five directly has a very fine system of selecting people. They do not cheat or pick and choose. They are very fair and I love them for that. At the moment, I don't see anything they are not doing well. I hope they can continue like this for us."

"I would like to build my house, so this transfer will be use to purchase building materials such as zinc, nail, planks."

"I was in bed that morning hour thinking how to start the day, I heard the heavy noise of celebration outside, I jump up to check what the celebration is about, it was about GiveDirectly transferred, I quickly check my mobile money account and I saw 35625LD from GiveDirectly, I immediately hugged my wife in the room with great happiness."

"I the coming year, I hope to have my own house since I have been a tenant for the pass five years."

"I am hoping to accomplish my housing project in this coming year from GiveDirectly transfers."

"In my opinion GiveDirectly is doing well by taking us from poverty or hardship, and they could do better by covering the entire county including all the districts."
