Receiving this money is good news to me. As an old person I do not work and I do not earn money. I depend on the government social cash transfers. Receiving this money from GiveDirectly will help me to buy a matress and good beddings for myself.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the afternoon when I am able to chat with my grandchildren. I am also happy when I wake healthy.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I face is lack of good beddings and matress. It has always been my wish to sleep on a matress and I believe with the money that I will receive I will be able to buy matress.
