My husband is the first born in his family and according to our culture and tradition he should build a house out of his fathers' compound.

"The latrine I had had collapsed after a tree fell on it, so I spent part of my third transfer on sinking and constructing a new one.

This kitchen doubles up as a sleeping room for my children as they had become of age to share the same sleeping room with me.The remaining amount I spent on reviving my doughnut baking business after it collapsed for lack of capital. I am so grateful to GiveDirectly and would like to urge them to continue helping others as they did to me."
