"Receiving this money means that my family shall have sufficient and reliable source of milk for consumption. The little income that we usually hqin from the tediuous casual jobs we do is hardly enough to sustain us, hence we could not afford to purchase our own cow. Since milk serves as a one of our most valued and commonly used food products, it has been expensive for us to continually purchase it because we have never managed to buy and keep a cow. I greatly thank God and GiveDirectly for the timely intervention."

"I was the happiest mum that morning I saw the transfer notification from GiveDirectly. It came at the right time when I needed it most, since I was financially helpless because of the corona virus pandemic."
