What does receiving this money mean to you?
I feel good and thankful for being considered to be part of the program, Give Directly should continue putting lives of us poor people first, you have rescued us from hunger and some challenges out here
What is the happiest part of your day?
In the past 6 months we only heard that there is a relief Organization helping poor people in Mangochi and we had hope that one day, we will benefit from the program and that alone brought joy to us
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
Currently we do not have adequate food and the current shelter is prone to collapsing at any point in time, we will use the money to buy cement and iron sheets for a proper house so that we shouldn't struggle during rainy season
