I am very thankful to Givedirectly for giving me a chance to be part of this Program, i didn't have enough food for the whole family and now i have bought enough bags of maize for us to eat for the whole year and 3 times a day.

I have no any complains about Givedirectly i believe Givedirectly is a good organization and it is very transparent.

What does receiving this money mean to you?
I am so grateful for being considered in this program. I am a single mother and it's very hard to find money. The money will be used to buy mattress and beddings.
I will also buy fertilizer for the next growing season. I will also use the money to buy bricks so that I can build a house. I will also buy food so that I can supplement on the little harvest I had.
What is the happiest part of your day?
I am always happy when I have done a piece work and get paid. The money supports my day to day living.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The main challenge is lack of money which makes it difficult for me to make both ends meet.
