"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."

"I want to see myself living in a new and more comfortable house, this will bring me so much joy and happiness because since my husband passed i have been fending for myself and i have longed for a better house but as a widow, i couldn't afford to do so, thanks to GiveDirectly that i can now in a few months have a more decent house for myself."

"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 spent my most recent transfer on buying mattress and floormat for my room while i used the remaining money to complete my house as i have been sleeping on mat for a while and the mat was spoiled and uncomfortable to used and I've also been been sleeping in my brother in law's house as i couldn't afford to complete mine."

"The biggest difference in my life is that I am optimistic that I would be able to own a nice structure. This will restore the joy in my life since we would no longer have to speed sleepless nights due to the leaking roof. Moreover, I can provide for the basic needs of the family like food without any struggle and our kids no longer go to bed without food."

"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."

"GiveDirectly program is awesome and unique and the most amazing part is we are given the previleges to decide what to do with the money."

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

""GiveDirectly is helping us by giving us money to improve our lives from poverty. Through GiveDirectly help, as a young person, I am about to have my own house. This organization is just good. Everything about GiveDirectly is excellent"."
