Victoria
received a $264 initial payment.
"Before Givedirectly's program, I only got little from the harvest of my farm for maintenance. We barely feed on the little we got. We were like a parasite, but now I can proudly say I don't have to worry about food, shelter and most importantly my kids are in school. This is my biggest happiness from Givedirectly cash transfer."
