Benjamin
received a $97 initial payment.
"I received the money when I was at my homestead, I felt very happy since my daughter who had completed her high school education last year was giving me a lot of pressure to clear her school fees arrears so that she can acquire her high school certificate since it was withheld with the school due to the school fees arrears that I had hence the money from GiveDirectly came as a rescue since at that point I had no money."
