Part of my first transfer was spent on one bundle of Zinc, and the balance money was used for business purpose. Second transfer was used for additional construction materials like Zinc, plant and paid contractors to brush my land space. Third transfer was used for additional materials like one bundle Zinc and nails with one matress. Last transfer is kept for the contractors payment.

Givedirectly did well by giving me money to build my own house.I been living in my family house with my husband and children until Givedirectly sent me the transfer. Every process went well.

The Last transfer was save to paid the contractors after the finishing of my house.my life is now better because I have been able to build my own house. Thanks to Givedirectly for making my life better.

My new goal is to build my own house, because the house I'm living in right now is my aunty house, that's why I decided to build my own house. Before than I used to farm the whole day just to get food for my family. But I'm so thankful to GiveDirectly for their support.

Givedirectly did very well in my life and that of our village , givedirectly has changed my life, givedirectly give me money, now I'm building my own house in my village. I'm so happy that I was enrolled on this program. So there's nothing that givedirectly hasn't done well.

When I received my transfer I was able to buy 2bundle of iron sheets that costs 20,000 LD, I bought costy to fixed soap for business, I bought enough of food for my family, and I paid the workmanship, the balance that left I'm saving it for my soap business.

Building a house has always been my greatest desire. So, when I received my first transfer, I decided to build a bigger house. However, upon receiving my next transfer from GiveDirectly, I've also decided to set up a new business. This will provide additional source of income to improve the livelihood of my family. Having received my second transfer from GiveDirectly, starting a new business has become my newest objective.

My notion of GiveDirectly as an integrity NGO remains unmatched. Every aspect of this organization is unrivaled. They give hope to extremely poor people like us by reaching out to these abandon and hard to reach towns and villages. They are very fair in selecting qualified beneficiaries. Finally, they are honest in delivering cash transfer to bona fide receipients. I don't see anything that GiveDirectly has been doing badly.

All of my life I've envisioned starting a new business and living in a bigger house. Therefore, when I received my transfer from GiveDirectly, I bought two bundles of zinc for $21,000LD to build my new house. Likewise, I also pay $4,000LD for custic and $1,200LD for 6gallons of oil. The custic and oil will be used to make iron soap for sale. Eventually, the soap business will create an extra source of income for my family. GiveDirectly's money transfer has improved my livelihood.

I was in the bush cutting wood, suddenly I heard noise from the town. I was wondering, so I hurried to get in town. The bush was not far from the town. When I got in town, I was informed that GiveDirectly has started sending transfer. I ran for my phone, and I saw my transfer message. I joined the group, and we started to celebrate. It has been my wish to start a petty business that will sustain my family and send my children to school. Upon receiving the transfer, I bought 10 tan of palm oil and a bag of caustic soda to start making soap. I am grateful to GiveDirectly for this assistant. This transfer has enable me to start earning my own money that will sustain my family.

The biggest difference in my daily life now is, I have started making soap with some of my transfer to sell to earning my own money to support my family. Unlike before, I was hired to make soap for others. This time around, I do not go out of cash. I was worried about my children school fees, but with my transfer from GiveDirectly, I have paid some of their fees. I will continue to make soap, because I want to always feed my children with good food and keep them in school. This is the biggest difference in my daily life.

I have soap making skill. Before I got enrolled in this program, I helped my mother to make her soap and when she sells, she gave me some money, but it was not sufficient for my family up keep. When I received my first transfer, I bought ten tan of palm oil and a bag of caustic. I am now able to independently make my own soap to sell and feed my family. I used some portion of my money to pay my children school fees. I am not worry about their fees any more. I can boast that the transfer GiveDirectly is sending me will completely change my family for the better.
