"Dropping out of school is a miserable life to live ever especially when you have the ambition to graduate from High school and extend for higher education. I am a 9th grade student of the Cestos city Method high school who dropped out of school in 2020 May when my grandfather, whose house I was dwelling in for my schooling passed away in 2020. I have since planned to go back to school when I have a little cash that could serve me for a school year without problem. Fortunately with GiveDirectly program of giving out unconditional cash transfer , I will definitely use cash if I am qualified to go back to school."
