"I'm currently a widow and I'm getting older each day so my major concern now is to build a new house for me and my children and to provide food for my children and send them to school. So, once I get this transfer from Givedirectly those are things I'm going to do."

"My first priority now is to send my daughter to college because since last year she graduated from high school there has been no enough money for her tuition fees. And secondly, I want to get zinc for my house because whenever rain falls it goes directly into my bedroom."

"The major source of income for my family is farming. Due to my inability to make a large farm, most often my family run out of food. Many days, we are unable to eat a balanced meal. The major challenge I'm currently face is food."

"Upon receiving this cash, my plan is that, when I receive this money, I will send my children to school and make sure that some of graduate from high school. In my father's generation, non of my father children has graduate from high school. This also goes to me as example, I stop in the fifth grade class and since then, I have not gone back to school. And I don't want this curse to be in my generation. We survive from cutting palms just to feed the family, sometime, when we sells the palm and the oil, the money can't be enough to send them to school. The house that we are presently in, is a family house, we don't have much power over the house, because this house is my wife father's house. We have other family members that are in the house with us, at the end, I have to be spending sometime in my family home and allow her to sleep with the children. For this, when I receive this money, I will use portion of it to send my children to good school and use the balance to build a house."

"I spent most of my transfer on the building of my new house."

"GiveDirectly is doing well by giving us phone, sim card and money. I see all that they are doing to be good."

"I want to say Bravo to GiveDirectly. They have been doing very well for us the poor people over the past time, and we appreciate them. There's nothing that GiveDirectly is doing that I see not to be good."

"I have a plan right now to build a house. My family and I don't a comfortable place to lay our heads; we currently sleep in a kitchen. That's why am planning now to build a house."

"GiveDirectly is giving me money to help myself and that is a very good thing. But what they are not doing well, I haven't seen it."

"I had decided to sell dry goods with my money and also do fish business, this money will help me alot in setting up my business, doing good business was on my agenda but how to start, but with the help of GD I had decided to establish my own self business. Previously I was selling for people to survive and such job is not easy in our area ."
