"I plan to pay for a piece of land which I hope to cultivate and produce food for my family."

"I really wanted a better house but because of the many needs that needed my attention like school fees, food i could not build. I thank GD for supporting me to build a good house and now i live in a clean environment."

"GiveDirectly helps everyone while other NGOs help only girl child."

"I plan to plant trees for timber, and pay school fees for my children."

"While GD sends cash transfers to those enrolled into their program and lets them decide on their expenditure, the other NGOs just give already bought items e.g mattresses, shoes etc which might not be a priority to an individual."

"I am being rained on in a leaking hut even now, I therefore plan to buy more ironsheet and timber and build an iron roofed house."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I have a kitchen in my home which I never thought I would have."

"I plan to buy an ox for ploughing my piece of land, and a water tank for storing water for domestic use."

"Before I got money from GD, I used to spend money to hire oxen from other people to plough my farm. Since I bought my own oxen, I've managed to save much money that I would have otherwise spent on farm expenses. The money saved has helped me a lot in daily household expenses."

"Other NGOs do not go as far as GD in terms of supporting people in our village."
