Ruth
received a $97 initial payment.
"I felt very happy the moment I received my money. This is because it was a time when we neither had money nor food and therefore it would facilitate us well. Again, 10000 KES is not easy to come by so I considered it God's blessings."

Lilian
received a $97 initial payment.
"I received my money when I never had any and at the same time, one of my child was sick and I never had food to feed them so the moment I saw the message and confirmed that it was money from Give Directly, I felt decompressed and totally relieved. I knew that I would now get food for us to eat before thinking of the next thing to do."

Winnie
received a $97 initial payment.
"The moment I received my money, I became modestly excited; I was excited but at the same time took control of myself. I remained sober in order to keep on track with my originally planned goals. God had just remembered me at the time when my properties could easily be resold to recover the loan."
