My new plan is to build a house in the city of Fishtown. My kids are there renting while going to school. I would like to move there so we can live together in our own house.

The only thing I think Givedirectly is not doing well is that they dont take into consideration people's absence during their visit to villages. When they dont meet you, there is no consideration especially during registration period. This has harmed many people including a widow who cried for consideration but she was denied. On the other hand, Givedirectly is doing well in empowering people to build their homes. This is helping us move from tartch houses to zinc houses. In fact, we are thinking about naming our children Givedirectly, especially who are being born during this period of Givedirectly transfer.

I spent most of my money on my children school fees, feeding and rent. I also spend on my grand children as well.

Yes, I have new goals. My new goals are to sent my daughter to nursing school and complete my house plastering work. My oldest daughter finish her secondary education last year but she could not further her education because of lack of finance. Also, I built my house since 2016 but could not plastered it fully because I was face with financial difficulties. Now that I have started receiving transfer fund from GiveDirectly my new goals of funding my daughter nursing education will be achieved and I have sufficient finance that I can used to purchased cement to plastered my house.

In my town GiveDirectly did not enrolled everybody during the registration process. Some people were not present when GiveDirectly team enter our town and as a result of their absence they were not registered. These people are in the same poor condition like myself, and are in thatch houses. Since after the registration stage those that were absent did not benefit from the program. I think GiveDirectly should do well in this area in making sure doing registration stage those that will be absent on the first day of registration GiveDirectly should sent their field staff back to those communities to register those that were absent. I think GiveDirectly should continue to give out financial assistance to poor people.

I Spent portion of my most recent transferred to purchase 20 bags of cement to complete my house plastering work and also register my daughter for her nursing education.

A motorcyclist from my town while commuting visited a nearby town and saw people excitedly talking about receiving their money from Givedirectly . He was so concern about his people that he quickly ran back to deliver the message to us and advice us to check our accounts. It that moment I was home siting. Every one of us rush to where we could acess network. We check and also saw ours. Thereafter the whole town became to celebrating. It was like a new baby has been born. I was happy and slept very fine that night.

Although my family abd I have been fighting to make life better, but things hasn't been that easy. At the verge of my daughter graduation there was no money, my husband had to travelled to the Ivory Coast to work as a contractor to raise some money for her school process. I was worried that she was to sit home after graduation without furthering her studies. It was right with in that time I received my transfer from Givedirectly. I was so happy to know that my daughter's dream was not going to die. I paid her collage fees and I am so proud to see her back in school studing nurse. I am a happy mother and a proud mother now.

My daughter just graduated and there is a need for her to further her education. In support of this, I use some of the money to pay her school fees. The balan e of cash is in save keep and will be use for construction purpose.
