"My husband wasn't employed so he used to go to the bush every morning to lack trap for animals. If he's fortunate he'll catch a squirrel or an ants eater etc... On other days, he came home empty handed. These are days I don't want to talk much about because we go to bed on empty stomach. Suddenly, that faithful morning while I was still in my room, I received my transfer from GiveDirectly. I was so overjoyed that tears started to roll down my cheeks. I knew fully well that this grant from GiveDirectly will be used wisely allowing my family and I have more than one source of income instead."

"Paying my sons tuition and completing my new house has been two of my greatest challenges in recent time. Hence, with this transfer from GiveDirectly, I will register my two(2) children in Norwein Public School. I will also buy three(3) gallons of paint and a generator for my new house. I am so much elated and grateful for GiveDirectly's money transfer which will enable me simultaneously resolve two of my greatest challenges."

"Most of my transfer will be used to purchase building materials for my four (4) bed room apartment. I will buy three bundles of zinc for $27,300LD. Furthermore, portion of the money will be used to buy few packs of nails and 4 bags of cement ($5,600LD) to plaster my house. I am so delighted about this transfer from GiveDirectly that has changed my life for good."

"My family and I currently live in a small house that contains 2 bedrooms and a single bathroom. When I received my first transfer, I bought 2 bundles of zinc for $16,800LD. This was because I wanted to replace the thatch on my old house with Zinc. However, when I received my second transfer, I bought additional 3 bundles of zinc to build a bigger house with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms creating more comfort and space for me and my family. The construction of a new four bedroom apartment in Duoh has become my new goal."

"I thank GiveDirectly for making me a great person in my community.GiveDiretly did well by making me to own money which I have never seen in my life.In my opinion, what Givedirectly has not done well is the cash out process. because going to Grand Bassa was very expensive and stressful in withdrawing the transfer."

"The biggest difference in my daily life since I received my payment from GiveDirectly is that, I don't worry again about where to money to build my house and I am now able to buy things that I didn't had the money to buy."

"The biggest difference in my daily life since I started recieving payments from GiveDirectly is that I am now able to pay my children's school fees, and I am also able to buy materials that I can use to improve my house to the level I desire."

"I'm going to use my most recent transfer to buy zinc and cement. With the zinc and cement I will start building my new house. I am happy that GiveDirectly sent me this money because I will be able to build a decent house."

"My most recent transfer will be used to purchase zinc, which I will use to cover the roof of my new house I'm going to built. I want to be thankful to GiveDirectly for bringing this life changing program in my community."

"In my opinion, GiveDirectly is doing well by not accepting gift from recipients. Also one of the things GiveDirectly does well is the follow-up they do on each transfer sent."
