My plan right now is to clear my children balance fees. The remaining portion will go towards food and additional building materials.

Give Directly is an organization of high integrity and I love them for that. They have indeed helped us achieved our goals.

My transfer was spent on my children balance fees, food, and additional building materials for my house project.

I don't have any new goal, I'm still continuing with my building project which is almost done. Additional I want to complete my children fees.

Give Directly does everything good.

I will spend my transfer on my remaining building project and my children balance fees.

All along I've been longing to build a house of my own. I have seven children in my mother's house. The house has become smaller to accommodate me, my wife and all of my children. However, due to low income, I was unable to build my own house and move in with my family. When I received my transfer from GiveDirectly, I bought 3 bundles of zinc. I also used portion of my transfer to buy gas and saw wood for my new house. The remaining money was used to pay contractors. I am so very happy. I feel so proud to be empowered to improve my life. Building a house has become my primary objective upon receiving my transfer.

From my own point of view, GiveDirectly has been doing quite well in reaching out to poor people like us by giving us enough money to improve our livelihood. This organization has been very fair in choosing qualified household from hard to reach town like ours. I'm so blessed to be benefiting from this project that has changed the livelihood of me and my entire family. Am overwhelmed about this good gesture coming from GiveDirectly.

I've always dreamed of building a house so that I could moved out of my mother's house along with my entire family. Am extremely excited that my dreams are coming to reality. Therefore, as soon as I received my transfer, I bought 3 bundles of zinc to roof my house. Similarly, I also purchased gasoline to saw wood for the construction of my house. The remaining portion of my transfer was used to pay contractors to build my house. In doing so, all of my recent transfer was spent on my building project.

I felt fine when I received the cash transfer from Givedirectly money. When I came home, my wife and I began to discuss on what to do with the money. We planned on how to send our children to school, buy some mattresses and on how to save some of the money for future used. We have been sleeping in beds that are very flat which hurts our bodies when we gets up from sleep in the morning. With this money, I am able now to make my family live a better life.

I have been living a life that is so sorrowful. Since I started to receive this cash transfer from Givedirectly my life has started to change positively. I have bought some mattresses for me and my family, I have also send my children back to school to have a better future, a future that is going to be far better than what they had before.

We have been sleeping in cold beds but with this cash transfer I was able to buy mattress, send my children to decent school to better up their future and also save some of my money for other emergency issues.
