"Falling sick now and then is the biggest hardship i have faced in my life because when iam sick i do not do casual labour that brings money to buy food for my family."

"We have a small piece of land that needs fertilizer for us to harvest enough produce. With the way we find we can not afford to buy fertilizer. This leads to hunger in our home. They are days when we do not even know where our next meal will come from."

"The biggest difference in my life is that I used to sleep on a mat and I was using wrappers as my beddings but now with my transfer I received from Give Directly I managed to buy a mattress and a blanket and am able to have peaceful sleep as when it's cold am not bothered at all. May God bless the organisation."

"I have spent the money buying materials for building a house. I have bought bricks and cement. I have Also bought mattress to be sleeping comfortably."

"I am happy to receive this money. I will use the money to build a house since the big house that I had was destroyed by the rains. I will also use the money to buy food. The remaining money I will use the remaining money to start a fish selling business since I live near the lake."

"I was so happy beyond measure cause my life had changed in a blink of an eye i used to struggle to find food but now i was able to buy enough food , clothing and other household items"

"I am very happy today that I have been enrolled into this program. I will use this money to buy things that I have always needed such as chairs, a matress and good beddings."

"I am very happy to receive this money from GiveDirectly. I will use the money to develop the surrounding of my house. I have been wishing to build a brick fence. I will use the money that I have received to buy bricks and pay the builders who are going to build the fence."

"The biggest hardship that I face is not having enough money. I face this hardship because business has not been going on very well especially this year."
