Currently, I have a decent house and I am so grateful for the support because we live so comfortably. GiveDirectly has changed our living standard. The remaining amount of money I spent on food and household items." (Occupation: Motorcycle or bicycle taxi)

"Owning a motorbike for myself is the biggest difference in my daily life. Currently, I am living a happy life because I earn enough income to comfortably support my family's basic needs like food. Previously, I had to hire motorbike from my neighbors which I am required to pay off every day." (Occupation: Motorcycle or bicycle taxi)

"The biggest difference in my life today is that I have a source of income, Having my own motorcycle would mean that I would be able to generate more income than before.

"I had gone to fetch firewood that evening and the place did not have enough network coverage. I could not readily receive a message. When I finally returned home, I heard my neighbours saying that GiveDirectly had sent the first transfer. I checked my phone and to my surprise, I had also received mine. I was greatly overjoyed and broke the news to my husband who joined me in celebrating this blessing." (Occupation: Motorcycle or bicycle taxi)

"I have saved my third transfer to add it up with the last to buy motorbike for my husband to start a commercial business. This will help increase our household income. My husband and I have six living children but only three living with us (my wife and husband). The rest are in Monrovia with others. So it is my wish to purchase a motorcycle, which I am about to fulfil soon enough." (Occupation: Motorcycle or bicycle taxi)

"GiveDirectly has done so much well for me. It has improved my living conditions. I am currently living in a house that the sticks and frame doors, including windows, are damaging by insects. But GiveDirectly has changed that living conditions to an improve one, through the receiving of cash directly. This is something done so well about GiveDirectly and I am happy to be on GD's program. As for things done unwell, I am not aware of anything of such." (Occupation: Motorcycle or bicycle taxi)

"The biggest difference is in the investments that we have made so far. We wouldn't for example be able to buy a dairy cow since the amount of income that we get from his motorcycle hustle that my husband engages in is hardly enough to allow us make ends meet. For the first time, we were able to till land up to 2 acres up from half an acre." (Occupation: Motorcycle or bicycle taxi)
