"My goal is to own my house and become a business woman. Therefore, I spent my recent transfer on building materials and business."

"The challenges that we are facing is not having enough food because am not making enough money through crops and when I don't harvest enough I end up eating with my family compared to selling. Am not strong enough to do piece works."

"I was very excited when I received my first transfer. When the first group of people in my community received thier first transfer, I was not apart of them, I felt very discourage, but when I later received my transfer, I stared to dance. I was too happy that I can't describe in words. I have been involved in subsistence farming. I was not able to sell any of the crops from my family to do other development with the money. With my first transfer, I have bought cement to improve my house. I build my house few years ago, but I was not having money to complete it and make it good for my family. I can't stop celebrating GiveDirectly for this gift that has made me to make my home a better place for my family."

"I used my first transfer for my children education, because it is my priority in life. Since I paid their fees, I have developed a new goal to build a new house. The house my family lives in is very old. The grass thatch that was used as the roof leaks when ever rain falls. I want to build bricks house. I have bought znic and plank to start the building project. I really appreciate GiveDirectly for my transfer, because it is through this transfer that am about to build a new conducive dwelling place for my family."

"I will renovate my house when I received the money, because I'm tired changing thatch every year."

"My husband and I been living in his brother house since we established our relationship. We never had money to build our own place until Givedirectly sent me the transfer.My new goal is to buy few goats and duck to raise it to sustain my family"

"I am planning to buy three bundles of Zinc along with three packs of assorted zinc nails to start building my kitchen. I am planning to register my children in school when I collect the recent transfer. I received information that mobile money agents in Buchanan have gone out of cash.I take this time to really appreciate Givedirectly for the cash support and I promise to used it wisely."

"I just completed building my house with stick and thatch roof when I was fortunate to be enrolled on Givedirectly program . When I started receiving the transfer, I immediately decided to change my house roof from thatch to zinc. My husband abandoned me with six children one year back for another wife which really frustrated me. SInce then, I have been the only source of income for the family. The only means to generate income for the family is to sell petty businesses. The challenge in caring for our children has been how to send them back to school. With receiving transfer from Givedirectly, I have decided to send my children back to school."

"In my opinion, GiveDirectly systems of work is well organised. One thing I admire about GiveDirectly is that the organization does not make false promise. More Organization has fail us many times in this Village. I do appreciate GiveDirectly for being real to people. I don't see any system that needs improvement in GiveDirectly implementation."

"I was able to buy some house materials and awaiting the second transfer to start building. I was usually depending on farming as my source of livelihood. Getting money to build my new house had become an issue for me because the little money I generated could not get me any better life"
