"I greatly appreciate GiveDirectly for the financial help that I received because it uplifted my living standard. Before receiving the transfers, I was staying on a piece of land that was not mine. My life is currently different because through the transfers, I acquired my own piece of land to build and do farming. I paid for it in full and now I own it as an asset. Apart from this, I also managed to build a house for my children. They are out of age and I could not accommodate them in my living house. It was not spacious enough hence they had to seek shelter from neighbours at night. I am now at peace seeing them having their own house to stay."
