"I used my first and second transfer to buy zinc and zinc nails. I also bought some other building materials. I spend my third transfer to buy a bag of rice. I'm saving the balance transfer to take care of my husband health expenses. I also give contractors two thousands five hundred Liberian Dollars ($ 2,500) to start cutting sticks for my house project."

"Huge of my transfer was spent on my house project. Some was also spent on my children school.I bought some provision for the house. I just bought fews bundles of zinc and cement. I'm even going to pay some guys to build my house. We are all happy because of this transfer from GiveDirectly. Building of this house has been a major challenge for me."

"GiveDirectly has done great things for me and my family. Has an NGO in Liberia they are very transparent in theirs work. They don't discriminate between people in theirs programs. Givedirectly cause me to have a decent house now."

"I was on my farms doing my normal routine when I received my transfer.I was so happy about this transfer that I received from GiveDirectly programs.I started singing and dancing about this money. Because for me to even provide for my children its was very much difficult for me. I really wish to build a new house for my children. With the transfer that I received from GiveDirectly, I'm now going to build a new house."

"I used KES 45000 to complete a house that I have been building for a while now. Had it not been for the transfers I would have had to postpone the building for quite sometime until I could get a better job but many thanks to GiveDirectly for enabling me realize my dream earlier than I had expected. The remaining amount of KES 10000 was used to support my wife who is still a student at the university."

"It was very early in the morning when my daughter in-law came to informed me that transfer had been sent. I couldn't hide my happiness. I felt so happy because GiveDirectly has fulfilled their promise. I so grateful because I have never received such amount of money before. I knew I would be able to build a better and spacious house. I used to live in a small house which could not host all my family comfortably. We stayed for three days and went to withdrew the money."

"Purchasing a heifer is the biggest difference in my daily life. This had always been one of my goals. I own one dairy cow and and sometimes used to buy milk daily and this is so costly for me. I do not have a continuous source of income. I depend on casual jobs and this earns me small income. I was not able to meet all the household items and buy a cow. Currently I have hope that in the next four months I will be able to get enough milk for the family and even sell the extra milk to earn an income to meet other household items. I have peace of mind to do my daily activities without being stress up like before. I am so grateful for the support because GiveDirectly has lifted up to a higher sky."

Actually I it was a confirmation message. I couldn't hide my happiness. Immediately I inform my family members and everyone was so happy. We had to take some time to celebrate the good news.i stayed for a period of one week before I went to withdrew the money. I am so grateful for the support because GiveDirectly has improved our living standards and enable us to fulfilled our dreams."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is building a better and spacious house for my family. We used to live in a small house which could which could host all my family comfortably. I had always wished to own a bigger house but I had no money. I do casual jobs and small scale farming. This two activities earns me small income to meet other household items. I was not in a position to save some money. I had always wished to build a better house. When I received the transfer I felt so happy and excited. Currently I have a decent and Spacious where I can host all the visitors comfortably. I no longer shy off like before. I have peace of mind to conduct other activities at home.
