"From my own jugement, GiveDirectly has done everything very well. The effort and process of reaching out to poor people like us is rewarding. We are very fortunate to be part of this life changing opportunity. I think that this Organization is doing everything so well."

"Since I started receiving payment from GiveDirectly, my daily life and that of family has changed for the better. For the passed rainy months, we have been living in total sadness because the roof of our house was leaking badly to the extent that we could preferred sitting outside of the house than inside the house when ever its rains. The whole house would get soak with all our belongings. This caused us serious embarrassment for so long, now with this transfer, we bought zinc, nail, planks and others roofing materials to change the roof from the old thatched and leaking roof to a zinc and better roof. We now go to bed as a happy family not worrying about the roof anymore. For this reason we are grateful to Give Directly."

"Right now I am one of the happiest person in my village. Since I started receiving payment from GiveDirectly, the thought of becoming an employer keeps inspiring me to dream more. I never thought about buying fishing net and fishing boat before, but with this new transfer I was able to buy net for fishing. With the fish, I will be able to sell to improve the livelihood of my family even after GiveDirectly leaves our town. I'm also thinking on paying someone to cut enough woods so I can be able to make firecoal for sale. Establishing a coal business coupled with purchasing a fishing boat and net has been my newest goal since I received my second transfer from GiveDirectly."

"I was so happy that I danced because I have an unfinished house project which is at a point of standstill due to the lack of money. Since my husband left me during the civil war, I have struggled to sustain my children and I."

"I want to build a zinc house in the big town( James Sorwee Town). I have been in the village since 30 years now, and all of our activities is in that town but I don't have a house there. With this transfer, I will be a decent house owner there."

"Since I was borned, I have never received money of the amount that GiveDirectly gave me. It is because of this transfer that I will have a house of my own. I currently live in my sister's house."

"I will use my transfer to build a house and start a maize farm."

"No, I do not have new goals."

"Our challenge is when we want to make farm, we are not strong enough to do the work so we pay people help us do it and if we don't have the money it becomes serious challenge for us."

"My greatest challenge is the health of my only child. His condition break me down all the time. I have carry him for treatment but no improvement."
