"saved the money"

"The recipient has no complaints about the program"

"GiveDirectly did a very good job in our village. Even the Field officers did a very good job. They visited every household to make sure that the right people receive the transfers."

"I would be living a life of struggles with no food and a descent house but many thanks to GD since the funds have helped us to buy food and build houses"

"my life is no so different as I have food in my house which is enough for everyone and also my house is looking very beautiful as i have added plaster onto it something which would have never been possible if not for the money"

"If I did not receive these transfers, I would not have managed to build a house for myself. It would have taken 2 years for me to source money for a house. This program has made it possible for me to build a house within three months and I am very grateful for that."

"With my second transfer I bought additional iron sheets, wood, and windows for my house project. I already own a house but I thought with the sum of money you were giving me it only made sense to invest into another house. I used the remainder of my transfer to buy some kitchen utensils."

"you do well in helping the poor people by giving us the poor people money so that we can build houses as well as buy food and there is nothing wrong that the organization is doing"

"i was very happy as i have never received that amount of cash transfer in my life"

"With my transfer I bought doors, nails, brick reinforcement wire, and saved a portion that I intend to buy wood with. I bought all of these things in readiness for building my own house so that I can have a much stable home. I currently live in my uncles' house and it is not big enough for the lot of us living in it."
