"Since i started receiving money from Givedirectly, my life has completely changed.The biggest difference in my daily life now. I now cooked three times meal for my children which give them so much joy. Before we barely eat rice in a day time. Fufu and a clear pepper soup was the order of the day. I can now afford good medications for my kids. I hardly carry my kids to hospital when they're sick. Because we couldn't afford hospital bills. The government hospital in the next village only give prescription not even a single pills. we couldn't afford to buy drugs from the drug stores, my husband always give the kids herbs for medications whenever they get sick. My husband used to cut palm and take contracts from people before he can put food on our table. My biggest dream is to purchase a plot of land in the capital city of grand bassa and build a house for renting. I thanks Givedirectly for their immense efforts in lifting my family high."

"My goal is to start my own gas business. I wanted to buy one karma generator at the price of $250 united states dollars for a business purpose. I want to build a house for my mother in her village. My mother has been sleeping with her sister for a long time now. Through Givedirectly transfer i will make my mother a proud woman by putting roof over her head."

"Those things that Givedirectly is doing that are good in my own opinion are: Givedirectly give me free money to improve my life, Givedirectly make me to own a cellphone not just to recieve transfer also for communication. Givedirectly always send my transfer on time.I normally get my transfer from the mobile agent without any stress. My life is changing gradually through the help of Givedirectly program."

"In my own opinion, from the beginning of this program up to present Givedirectly has been transparent in their selection.Firstly i was informed about their ground rules and regulations which i see as a good standard for transparent distribution of cash.Givedirectly did good by giving me money, phone, along with a sim card. Givedirectly staff talk to me nicely. They ecourage me to do good things with the money they give me that'll improve my children future. Those things that Givedirectly did that i felt was never good at all,Givedirectly don't even drink water from us neither accept our offers which brings saddness to me. at least good should pay for good."

"I bought three bundle of zinc and other materials for my house project. I paid my daughter's school fees and pay for some planks to make doors and doors frames for both the house and the shop. From the entire money i received from Givedirectly, $2600 Liberian dollar was used to buy rice for my wife and children to eat."

"My family and I live in a thatch house. We are normally affected by the heavy storm and the entire house is flooded with water during the rainy period. In many instances, I have to clamb up the roof to set old buckets and other materials just to cover up some leakages or the holes on the roof. This has affected my children's health and my planned was to build a better house and afford my children quality education. I am very excited to let you know that the tranfer will be use to buy a bundle of zinc and change my roof. I will also use some of the money to initiate the new construction and the rest will be use for my children's education."

"Since I received the payment from Givedirectly, my life have started improving. Because, I can now afford to pay my children school fees and have been able to buy some materials and awaiting the balance transfer to get all of the construction materials to start my new house. My children are always happy and smiling all the time."

"I use part of my first transfer to buy three(3 ) bundles of Zinc and nails for my new plan construction.I also use the little balance for transportation back to my home across the Timbo river. My life have been very busy almost every day because I use to wake up earlier in the morning to get to my village to start working just to have more hours to earn little money to sustain the family. Thank God that my life is getting better with the gift from GiveDirectly."

"I was in the nearby town, going to help my big sister to harvest some of her rice for my family. when I received the message from Givedirectly. I didn't know what to do Because, I have been suffering to get my family support and a better living place.Now, with the transfer, I was able to buy some of my house materials because my family and I live in my father house and my step mother always in conflict with me. I never had enough money to build my own house.But with the help from Givedirectly, My life is getting better every day. There is happiness and smiling in my household even from my step mother. Thanks to GiveDirectly for changing my family life"

"I was able to buy some building materials with all of my first transfer. Preparing gari and selling it has been the only source of livelihood for my family. Because of the little money I generated from the gari, I have not been able to do any development for my family. With the gift from Givedirectly, I can now afford and I'm now stress free. my plan of getting my own house is now going to be accomplished soon."
