How is your life different than it would have been if you never received the transfer?
I am now feeling better because GiveDirectly has given us the money to do what we could not think of doing now due to the financial constraints.
In your opinion, what does GiveDirectly do well, and what does it not do well?
It has given us free money to do what we want. And there is nothing bad I have seen so far.
What did you spend your second transfer on?
I have managed to buy bricks, iron sheets, sand and stones worthy 1,100,000/= and I am now remaining with 500,000/=

What does receiving this money mean to you?
Receiving this money means helping me to achieve my dreams because I want to buy land and build a beautiful home when I receive the cash transfers.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the afternoon when my grandchildren come back from school and I get to spend time with them.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I have faced in my life is falling sick all the time and I also have a problem with my eyes so I do not see clearly.
