"Ever since I received the cash gift from Give Directly in December 2020 up to now 3 months later, my life has completely changed. I have been able to buy items that I did not think I could be able to have. Firstly, I bought iron sheets that I will roof my house soon after construction is done. Secondly, I was able to buy clothes and beddings. I have never cover myself with a blanket before. I used to cover myself with mosquito nets that ministry of health was contributing free of charge country wide. At the moment, I am able to cover myself with the most beautiful blanket and sleeping on the matress because of GD."
