"Unfortunately my house was destroyed by the rains,so i used 70 percent of the transfer to buy house building materials such as cement,bricks,doors and many more,i used the other part of the transfer to buy 1bag of fertiliser,3 bags of maize,Matress and covering labour costs."

"All along i have been wanting to renovate my house since it never had a nice floor and finishing so as soon as i got the transfer i used part of it to buy cement and all the materials needed for the renovation,i also bought 2 bags of fertiliser that's all."

"The biggest difference this money has made in my life is actually the fact that iam now able to afford atleast 2 meals a day. Food is life and I sincerely thank GiveDirectly for this because I do eat when iam hungry. This is unlike in the past when we could not have meals on some days."

"The biggest difference this money has made in my life is that it has temporarily chased hunger away from my household. With the food i bought using this transfer, I and my family are happy because we do have meaningful meals daily unlike before when the whole day would pass without eating anything."

"I was starving and now I am able to feed my family using this money"

"Now i have a nice sleeping place. I also have enough food for my family"

"I was very happy when i received my transfer. I should also extend my gratitude to the entire GD staff."

"Seeing that i will be able to build a house is the biggest difference ever"

"I will be able to build a descent house. i could have not afford this if not for Give Directly."

"I used my money to buy a mattress, 5 bags of maize for food, 6 bags of cement for my house and 3 bags of fertilizers for my garden"
