"I was on campus when the message came but I ignored thinking it was one of lonestar numerous messages, then one of my colleagues came to inform me that Givedirectly sent his wife money. In no time, I reach out for my phone to check and it was confirmed. I jumped with jubilation, praising God for Givedirectly. It was the happiest day of my life."

"I was doing house chores when I heard the phone beeping, I called my neighbor's daughter that can read and write and she informed me that GD sent the money they promised. I took the phone back and started jumping and prasing God for all that had happened. My kids joined me in jubilation. I called my husband to inform him about what was unfolding. My entire family was happy."

"I was hauling sticks for someone when I heard my message alert. I called one of my sons to help me read the message and it was Givedirectly who had sent me money. I threw the sticks from my head on the ground; with so much happiness and fulfillment, I ran up and down the town in jubilation. I was even confused; I did not know how to act anymore out of happiness. Givedirectly has done the biggest thing ever in my life. At least for once, someone has thought about helping me since my husband died. I will be able to settle most of my problem and wear smile on my face."

"I was cooking at the moment so I sent my son to walk to where the network is and check my phone because everyone in the town was shouting and jubilating. He came back running to tell me my own was here on the phone. It gave me so much happiness amidst mixed emotions. I couldn't hold back the shouting and dancing."

"I was overwhelmed with joy when my son told me that my money has arrived. I couldn't hold back the jubilation and singing when I came from the pump and confirmed the news, a sum I've never had for myself ever before."

"My husband lost his job(driver) in the year 2020 because of the coronavirus pandemic. That was the darkest moment in our family because he is the breadwinner. January this year brought good tidings and he was reinstated. This is one thing that brought jubilation to the whole family as it means less struggling unlike the previous two years."

"I felt shocked at first glance. I had never held this sum of money before this. As I heard the jubilation from everyone, I hurriedly opened my phone to check and there was mine. It was a moment of extreme happiness for me."

"I was brushing my farm when I heard a loud shout from the town. I quickly rushed back home to inquire what was happening. I later found out that it was Givedirectly's money that arrived in the phones. I ran back at the network area to check my account and noticed that I've received mine as well. I shouted with joy; I danced around the house with excitement and my wife and kids joined me in jubilation. My wife and I started making plans around the usage of the transfer."

"I was clearing among cassava on my farm when I received the cash transfer massage; this was at the network point on my farm where I always hang my phone. When I received the message, I checked my account balance and it was unbelievable as to the huge amount I saw in my account. I just told my wife I was off for the day because GiveDirectly had sent our money to my phone. I was jumping and dancing telling her, she too joined me in jubilation."

"I was at home early in the morning. I heard people shouting and jubilating in the town. I came out to see what was happening and that was how someone from the group told me that Givedirectly transfer has landed. I was partly happy, but wanted to make sure if I am among those that have received. I went up the hill at the network site to confirm. This was how I saw the message 40375 LD from Lonestar sent by Givedirectly. I was overly happy."
