"Before this transfer, I had a plan to build my own house and the Give Directly program has helped me a lot in achieving my some of my goal. Most importantly the issue of my house. I had lived in this village for more than twenty years without any achievement. Living in this village is like living in a dark world. Things had been very hard on me and my family. I couldn't believe that I could start a good life in this village but special thanks and appreciation goes to Give Directly for helping us and making us to feel like belonging to the society again"

"By taking the stand to help the poor is a great thing especially sending the cash directly to me and other people that are receiving money from GiveDirectly. In my opinion about what is not done well by GiveDirectly, I have not seen anything of such. I just want to say thank you to GiveDirectly for everything they have done for me and my family for a better future."

"I used portion of my first transfer to buy one bundle of zinc and the second transfer I also used portion of it to buy one bundle of zinc and portion of it wasused towards transportation and other building materials to start my house project. The rest of it I have invested it into business to increase my hands incase there is financial crisis. I am waiting for my third and fourth transfers to complete my house and open my shop for future incom"

"My most recent transfer has been spend on my future house project and also the payment of workers that are building the house for me and my family. The remaining portion of the transfer, I bought enough food for me and my family to have much to eat. I have planned to invest some of the money into business so when the transfer from Givedirectly stops coming, I will have somewhere to get money from to sustain me and my family. This planned had made me to get some of the money in a saving club while I am waiting for my third transfer to finally complete my house and start with my business."

"I wanted to change the roof over my house and pay my children's graduation fees but I couldn't because I had no money. When the help came from Givedirectly, I was very much happy about it because I could not have worked and earn such amount of money. I was able to use portion of it to pay my graduation fees that I have been worrying about. The remaining portion of it, I used it to pay for my children's school fees because I need a better future them. The balance, I used it to buy some food for my house because I need my children and my wife to eat more and be healthy and also change the roof over my house and renovate it properly for the comfort of my family and I."

"I have not withdrew any of my transfers because I need more money to be able to buy my motorbike for business purpose. I believe that through the business, I will make more money to develop my life and build a house for my family and I to stay in the future."

"GiveDirectly can help so they can take money from in ur phone and they can good on how to use ur money"

"The biggest difference in my life is that,i was really going through hard time. Over the past year now my children and i never though about building a house with zinc. Even for them to go to school wad difficult for them. With the transfer from givedirectly my kids are now in school now."

"Before receiving my first transfer i was on my farms doing my normal routine. When i got in the town i heard a huge noise in the town all about givedirectly transfer. I run to the network area to check on my phone. Upon the checking i saw mine.I was so excited about this until I started singing and dancing. Because I'm very old man now i can't do anything like farming work again. With this money now i can able to build my new house."

"GiveDirectly has a NGO they are very transparent in their work.they don't discriminate between people in their program.From the time their program started in Rivercesse they have not done anything wrong to us.they are very much good to us as poor people of Liberia."
