How is your life different than it would have been if you never received the transfer?
Before receiving this money, I never had any plan of building a house. Never thought it could habe happen this soon. However since Givedirectly started sending me transfer, my new goal now is to build a house. I have started to plan alreday buying materials already.
In your opinion, what does GiveDirectly do well, and what does it not do well?
I dont see anything Givedirectly is not doing well at the moment. I am convinced that Givedirectly is doing well in reaching out to help we the poor people to build a better home, send our chdren to school and improve our lives.
What did you spend your most recent transfer(s) on?
I have purcheased one bundle of zinc. I also sent cash to my children in school and bought some food for my family.
