How is your life different than it would have been if you never received the transfer?
Before receiving the help from Givedirectly sometimes we could sleep the whole night without having to eat anything but now things have changed so much, we are able to eat the way we want, that is three to four times a day. And my whole family is happy now.
In your opinion, what does GiveDirectly do well, and what does it not do well?
Givedirectly is a very good Organization and we are thankful to be part of this program and i don't have any complains about its work.
What did you spend your most recent transfer(s) on?
I spent the most of my transfer from Givedirectly to build a decent house because my house was in a bad shape and i was afraid that it might collapse on us one day especially during the rainy season.
