"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have manged to cement my house and now I no longer face challenges such as frequent smearing of my previous mud house for maintenance purposes mainly on rainy seasons as rain could rain on the muddy wall of the house hence leading cracks and some part of the wall to falling off."

Violet
received a $483 second payment.
"The biggest differences in my daily life are I have built a toilet in my homestead with the first transfer and now the personal hygiene of my household has improved positively since we no longer practice open defecation. I also find it easier to clean my house since I have cemented the floor of my house hence I feel more comfortable hosting visitors in my house as I have attained all that I need in a house. Thanks to GiveDirectly"

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that my desire of owning a home is at the verge of being realized since I've managed to buy all the building materials and only waiting to harvest my crops then establish it since our tradition dictate that one cannot establish a home when the farm is not yet harvested."
