What does receiving this money mean to you?
I am very happy that I have received this money from GiveDirectly. I will use this money to buy food. I will also use some of the money to buy utensils so that I will be able to remember that I received money from GiveDirectly. I believe that by buying food my family will be very happy. I think by buying food it will mean the money has served the right purpose on my household.
What is the happiest part of your day?
In the last six months I have been happy because my family has been healthy and I have managed to have enough food for my children. So I have been very happy because my family is healthy in the last six months.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest challenges that I am facing in my household is lack of food. This is because the money that I make is not enough. I am not able to save money for other projects because I spend all the money I make on food.
