Yes I have a new goal that I didn't have before receiving this transfer. That goal is to buy land in Monrovia so that I can build a house on it for my family to relocate to Monrovia. Living in this village presents numerious challenges. Firstly, there is no school in this village. The closest primary school to our village is in Menzen [about 3 Km away from Weafeah]. Besides the distance, the learning environment is not conducive as there're only "two teachers" in the entire school. Additionally, access to healthcare services is another major challenge. The closest medical facility to our village is Suehn Clinic [about 25 km away from Weafeah] I therefore wish to buy land and build a house in Monrovia where my kids will have access to better education as well as healthcare.

GD does well in the timely transfer of money to recipients. When I was told that my family will receive money four times within four months, I was a bit doubtful. I thought that this was just another ploy designed to collect our personal information. However, true to their word, we received received the money within the promised timeframe. Another area where GD does well is the fairness of their enrolment prpcess. There's no "pick and choose" (discrimination) amongst town residents. In my opinion, GD is doing well in every area. I cannot identify anywhere where GD does not do well.

The money from GD came at a time when my family was in desperate need of a house. My spouse and I currently live in a single bedroom structure along with my 5 kids. Due to the limited lodging capacity of this house, my spouse often sleep along with his friends. Because of this, we are building a 3 bedroom house that'll be able to accommodate my entire family. I spent my most recent transfer to buy zinc for that house.

At first, my husband and I have been surviving on farming. We couldn't afford our children school fees and their school materials. Upon receiving the transfer, I was able to register them in school and I also bought a commercial motorbike to start a business.

GD is doing well to lessen our burdens by giving us the transfer.

I bought a motorbike with my transfer and the balance was used to pay my children fees in school.

No, I don't have new goals for this second transfer. My previous planned about buying a motorcycle for commocial purpose still stands. When I'm through with that, maybe I will have new goals in the future.

All of the work GiveDirectly has done for me and my community are great. I will forever remember GiveDirectly in all of my prayers for putting smiles on our faces. My family and I are grateful to GiveDirectly for helping us with this huge amount of money that I have never handle before.

I have added two hundred United States dollars of this recent transfer to my previous money that is in saved keeping. Making the total amount of four hundred United States dollars to buy my motorcycle for commocial purpose. I bought food, matress and other household items with the balance money for home use.

I was on the farm cutting rice and I saw my husband running to me to tell me. He said Fatu, the money is on our sim! I dropped the rice bunch I had in my hand and started stomping my feet in jubilation. I thank God for bringing Givedirectly to bless my family.

The biggest difference in my daily life is the fact that my children are neat in school. Before, they did not even look like students because they were dusty and did not have shoes. The money made all my children happy. When I send them to do something for me, they don't complain because they are all happy that their life changed this school year. I now have respect and peace in my home. Moreover, I thought cutting palm was the end of my life, but I don't have to do all those hard jobs to survive anymore because we are about to start our business.

My husband and I decided to pay our children's school fees and buy their uniforms. We kept the rest to add up and purchase a motorbike for business.
