"We were so happy with my husband to receive the funds from Give Directly. Our children in secondary school had been sent home for lack of fee. Our other source of funds was no more because our maize plantations were destroyed by a disease that broke out in our region so we were just looking to the heavens to send help to us and indeed we got heavenly help from Give Directly. Our needs were fully catered for and our children went back to school. They are now home for holiday. May God bless Give Directly."
