My transfer was used to buy cement. I also used part of my transfer to buy additional zinc. The balance money will be use to pay people to make my farm and plaster my house.

Through the assistance from Givedirectly my life have been transformed. I have money to do those things that I want. Am very happy to be a part of this program. Many thanks to Givedirectly organization for support me to earn something good.

The goal now is complete my house and farming. I want to start a new business that will enable me to sustain my children. I'll also like paint my house and make my house a very decent. I also want to pay people to make a very big rice farm this here. I appreciate Givedirectly for the help they have given to me.

My priority was to complete my house and move in. Therefore, as soon as I received my transfer, I bought 3 bundles of zinc for $30,600LD. I also used portion of my transfer to purchase 1 carton of nail for roofing and 5 bags of cement to put floor and plaster the walls of my entire house. The balance money was used as transportation of materials and compensation for workers.

From my own understanding, GiveDirectly has been very transparent in reaching out to poor people like us. Their method of giving us huge amount of money and letting us decide on what to do with it is exceptional. I love GD and I see nothing that they are not doing right.

I have been working hard to earn enough money and complete my house. It was almost impossible to achieve my dream because of very low income received from selling plantain and banana harvested from my farm. However, when I received my transfer from GiveDirectly, I bought 3 bundles of zinc, 1 carton of nail and 5 bags of cement to complete my building project and move into my new and comfortable house.

Most of my second transfer was used on my building project. I bought 32 pieces of plank (950 × 32= $30,400LD). I also bought 18 gallons of gasoline (18 × $850 = $15,300LD. The little money I've been saving before I received my transfer from GiveDirectly was used to do my registration in Yarpah's Town Public School. I'm so pleased having been able to accomplished all of these through GD financial assistance.

All my life, it is the very first time I've seen an organization such as GiveDirectly. They come in our town and give us huge cash we didn't work for; yet they do not accept any favor in return. It looks so unreal to see things like these happen these days. I am so pleased with this program and I don't see any wrong thus far.

I live in my father's house with my husband. The house is not spacious enough to accommodate all of my brothers and sisters along with my husband and I due to limited number of rooms. Meanwhile, I decided to build a house upon receiving my transfer from GD. I used bulk of my transfer to buy 18 gallons of gasoline and saw 62 pieces of plank for the construction of my new house. I've also always wanted to go back to school but couldn't afford to pay my tuition. With GiveDirectly intervention through cash transfer, I was able to register in Yarpah Town Public School.

My first transfer that I received from GiveDirectly, I'm now thinking about building a house for my family, life wasn't fine with me and my family but with this money that i received from GiveDirectly my family and i we can now eat good food. I'm even thinking about starting a new business that will help me after this programs so that my family will not suffer again. I even bought (2) bundles of zinc and paid people to cut my new house sticks.

The biggest difference in my life is that after receiving this money life has changed greatly. My children are now getting really for schools. I'm leaving from this old house to a new house that which i was not even thinking of now but with the help of GiveDirectly I'm now able to build this house. I was not even thinking of starting a new business, there was no money to do this business.

It was a surprise to me the movement i received my first transfer. I'm very thankful to GiveDirectly for their support towards us in Rivercesse. They are really helping us a lot. In the past I did not have the financial strength to build a new house but with this am now building a new house for my family. I'm so glad about this programs. GiveDirectly is doing in Liberia more especially we the poor onces.
