"My biggest harship is putting food on my table, being in a.polygomous marriage makes it worse because most times I have to act as the head of house so that puts pressure on me. This money will relieve that pressure"

"She said there are many challenges, but the main one is the lack of money to get back to school."

"The recipient says the challenges are many, among these challenges are: no enough food to eat, no good clothes to wear, no money to improve our lives and etc."

"The major challenge in my life right now is how to get money to pay my children tuition fees. I want to educate my children because I never go to school so that they can become important people tomorrow. Some of them may become doctor, president, representative, senator or even ambassador for Liberia in the future. Even if I don't live to see them become those important people, I will rejoice in my grave."

"" What I have on mind right now to do is business. If I am successful to receive cash from GiveDirectly, I will firstly establish a small business. Some of the things I would like to sell is rice, oil, soap, cosmetics amongst other. I believe by doing so would help my family in providing for our household in addition to what my husband earns from his motorbike riding This might also help other people in my town because they will not have to travel to nearby towns to buy these materials"."

"My lifee is now different, I know Givedirectly cannot do everything we want. But i am grateful because it gave us start up capitals for building a house, buying food as well as on figuring out on how to invest the money. My life is no longer the Same."

"The money will be of great help in finalising my house. I just built a house without finalising it and I have been lacking money to do so. I also intend to buy household items such as matresses, clothes and some beddings. I will also use the money to build a bathroom. I am really grateful for being considered in this program."

"Food access is a challenge. I don't have a reliable source of income."

"My biggest hardship has been the lack of decent housing, we do not have sufficient clothes to wear, both the children and I. Eating sufficiently is also a challenge."

"I am very excited to recieve this money because I know that my dreams of building a good house will be fulfilled. As a single parent, it is very hard for me to raise money for both food and building a house. I am very grateful that I am one of the GiveDirectly beneficiaries and I know that my life will change for the better because of this money."
