"No. I don't have any new goals before receiving my transfer. I started building a house some time ago. I couldn't complete that project because I didn't have enough money. Life has been a bit difficult. I have been hoping to raise money but couldn't raise the full amout that I needed. Thankfully, GiveDirectly came to my town with this cash transfer. This golden opportunity that will change our lives for the best."

"I make palmoil to sell for a living. The oil business was going good at first. With the economy, the business has been moving slow for some time now. Things have been a bit difficult for us. My children have been sleeping on the floor because where we stay there's no enough space. That breaks my heart. I felt relieved when GiveDirectly officers enrolled me in this cash program. I was overwhelmed. I saved my money. Hopefully when I receive the rest of the transfers I will add up to buy a motorcycle to do business. Money generated from the motorcycle business Will be used to build a decent house for my family. Thankfully our family life is about to improve."

I used some of my money to buy some food items. I also spent some at the hospital to get my sick child treated. I used a little amount to buy zinc. When I receive rest of the transfers I will add up the zinc and buy some other materials to build my house."

"I was sitting infront of my house when I received my mobile money alert. Immediately, I ran in to my room and started dancing and singing prayerful songs. This is the first of it kind to see NGOs transferring mobile money free without individuals paying back or working for it. I don't have a house in this village. My house broke down since 3 years ago and I have been living in mission house. I am caring for 8 grandchildren. Providing regular meal for my grand children has been a challenge for me because their parents are still in schools and cannot afford to fully support them.I am the only source of income. My dream has been to rebuild my house that got broken down when I have money. Thanks to Givedirectly for the unexpected transfer. With receiving transfer from Givedirectly, I believe that I am going to rebuild my house."
