"My plan for my most recent cash is to renovate my house because it's so embarrasing when i live in this town and cannot host other relatives and friends that come from out all because my house isn't in a pleasant condition."

"GiveDirectly cash transfer program is a very good program and they are doing well at it, imagine, a widow like me being able to build a house for herself all because GiveDirectly has given me the opportunity to do so."

"I hope to complete the house and see my son graduating from high school because it is through this transfer I have been sponsoring."

"It was on 2nd December 2022 when I received a call from one of the GiveDirectly agents. He requested to know whether I had received the and I boldly said no because I did not know that the money was sent to my account three weeks before that day. Since I could not follow the steps of checking for my account balance as he was directing me, the agent requested to speak to my helper. Luckily, the helper had just arrived from her place of work. Upon confirming, the helper informed me that the money was in my account. On hearing that, I was overjoyed in happiness for seeing the money and at the same time, I blamed myself for illiteracy. In the past few days, I went without yet I had $550 in my account."

"I want to see myself being a medical doctor and living a very good life in the years to come, accomplishing that will put me and the position to be of help to others thus, giving me so much joy."

"Being a casual laborer, I was on our neighbor's farm tilling. It was around 4 pm when I received the loud message alert on my phone. Since I am illiterate, I had to return home for my helper to check and interpret the message. It was a very joyful moment in the family when he checked and informed me that I had received the transfer from Give directly. This installed confidence in my life that finally, I would be able to achieve my desires in my life."

"In my opinion give direct did extremely well by helping me to improve my life, and i just don't see nothing did they bad in."

"I want to start a Cocoa Farm through which i would be able to earn more money to be able to take care of myself and my family in the future."

"GiveDirectly is doing very well with the cash transfer, making sure that the money is reaching the recipients with no third party being involved."

""My brother look at me, at my age I am still living in my father's house. It doesn't make sense. I had always wanted to have a place of my own and move out of my parent's house. Then came GiveDirectly with this unconditional assistance. I immediately bought zinc, have paid people to cut sticks for my house. I myself started cutting my sticks. I paid some community boys to haul the sticks to the to town. My brothers helped me to clear the spot for my house"."
