"Give Directly does not do anything wrong. It has changed our lives. We used to struggle to make a living while dreaming of living in a better house. We always dreamt of having a business to give us an income we could rely on. Give Directly has helped achieve those dreams."

"The moment i received a notification message that i have received money from Givedirectly i was at the borehole but i couldn't hold it, i instantly went back home to tell my husband that i have received money."

"Lately me and my family's everyday lives have changed so much since receiving money from Givedirectly because we have enough food, i bought mattress and am sleeping comfortably. At the moment am in the process of building a new decent house so in doing that i will be sleeping comfortably and unfearful that the house might collapse on us"

"Our main problem has always been hunger. This comes due to poor harvest as our gardens do not produce a lot due to lack of fertilizer. This usually makes us do pieceworks in order to add extra income on the money from produce. Njala...October to farming season..continues hunger..piceworks for food not fetilizer"

"When i recieved the money, i went to buy 24 ironsheets, a mattress and 3 blankets. I have a house that i have to maintain every year by looking for grass for the roof. My children and i used to sleep on the ground with out a blanket now i saw it wise to buy the mattress and blanket for my home."

"This programme means alot to people like us I'm pretty sure that it will literally alleviate poverty because looking at it its a tangible amount of money."

"Being a able to buy ironsheets and building a house is a big improvement for my life"

"I bought Ironsheets, matress, blanket and roofing materials"

"This is a good program becaus3 giving us money has helped me to buy clothes and food"

"The recipient used the transfer to build a new house and also bought clothes and other household items"
