"The biggest difference in my daily life is that now poverty has lessen as compared to past when i was failling to access most of my needs"

"I used the money to build a new house because it is what i have been longing for. For along time i have lived in a poor house with a grass roof but now i have an iron sheets one"

"Give directly has fulfilled his promises in our community"

"My life has changed in a way that now am sleeping on a mattress, I have food in my house and very soon I will have a house with iron sheets. This was never the case before GD came into our village, we are thankful for the help we have received."

"The money has helped me to buy a land for farming"

"I am planning to spend my sending transfers on building a new house. After receiving the first transfers, I used the money to buy iron sheets and to mould bricks in readiness for my project to build the new house. With the second transfers, I will be able to pay the builder who will build the house for me. I will also use the money to buy window and door flames so that I should have a beautiful house. I no longer want to be sleeping in a glass thatched house I have been sleeping for many years."

"The accomplishments I managed after receiving the first and the second transfer are so great that my household looks quite different from how it would have been if I had never received the transfer. I am glad that I managed to complete the construction of a new and spacious house for the whole family. It would have been so hard for me to accumulate a huge amount of money that would have been enough to put up such a descent structure but GiveDirectly made it possible for me through the transfers."

"In my opinion, all that has been going on in our village since GiveDirectly came in is amazing. A lot of changes have been witnessed and in my capacity, I am thankful to have been accorded all rights to budget my own money and spent it on everything that I needed most for my household. I don't have any complaint at all, and like every other person in the village says it has been perfectly executed."

"It was exactly 9 am when I received the message of the transfer. I was in my house chatting with the grandchildren after completing morning chores. I felt very happy for receiving the transfer since I had never received such a huge amount of money before."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I am living a stress free life after receiving the transfer. I no longer have to worry during the rain season after constructing a decent and spacious shelter for my family."
