My life is now different in that, I own an ox and renovated my old house. Before, I used to sleep in an incomplete house and it wasn't convinient enough. In addition, we used to wait for the owners of the oxen to finish ploughing before our acres would be ploughed. This in turn led to poor yields hence food shortage.

In my opinion, GiveDirectly has done well by buying for me an ox that will plough for me my acres of land. On theother hand, Givedirectly did everythig well.

I spent my second transfer to buy an ox worth Ugx 800000, building materials like cement and a door worth Ugx 160000. I paid the builders Ugx 160000 and I'm planning to spend the balance to construct a verandar for my house.

My daily life is filled with joy because I can feed on any foods that my heart desires. My skin complexion has also improved because I smear with versline which I couldn't afford before receiving the transfer. Initially my house was incomplete and coldness could blow on me at night but now its fully complete.

I became so happy because I would have died without holding this kind of money in my entire life. I danced, Ululated and thanked God and Give Directly for helping this old woman because I never believed that which Organization can just wake up in the morning look for me in a remote village and send money just like that. My house would have collapsed without being completed but because of Give Directly I'm sleeping in a cool house.

I used my token transfer to complete my house which was incomplete. I bought construction materials like doors, windows, aggregates, sand, cement, paint and Bricks which costed ugx 1303000 and paid labor ugx 360000. I also decided to thank God for the transfer and I took Ugx 50000 as thanksgiving. I also spent the remaining ugx 77000 for feeding and buying small things in the house like smearing oil among others.
