"The biggest difference in my daily life is having managed to roof, shut and plaster my house. This has beautified my home. Prior to getting this transfer, my husband had opted to get a salary loan since he is a civil worker(Policeman)."

"The life I am currently living is incomparably different from the life I would be living if I had never received the transfer from GiveDirectly. The leaking roof I was used to in my old house is no more, a reason enough to smile and be thankful to give directions for the generous support they gave us."

"The moment I received my money, I felt so happy that I informed my wife who later on made joyous noise on seeing it as well."

"For over ten years, I lived in an empty house devoid of any furniture. Since I got married, I lived in this house with discomfort, especially whenever I have visitors. I used to borrow furniture from neighbors. This has improved. I am so proud of my home now that I bought enough furniture for the house. I also started a shop business in my compound. It earns me a daily income from the sale of household items."

"The moment I received the money I felt so much happiness. I remember it was very early in the morning when my spouse called me to informed me that GiveDirectly had sent the money. I was at school at that time and I felt so much happy, I knew I would be in a position to pay for the school fees on time. My spouse also felt so happy because this was a support to him. He has been the one paying for my school fees and he was so struggling at home."

"My life is currently different because I now have an income form the dairy cow that I bought. I am happy to have milk that I sell and that I use for my family's consumption. I used to buy milk from my neighbors which would often make my daily household expenditure very high. I am also extremely excited about plastering the floor of my house. The earthen floor usually gets dumb during rainy seasons. I will avoid this situation once I make a concrete floor. Income source and improving my home would not have been feasible were it not for GiveDirectly."

"My life is different than it would have been if I never received the transfer in that I build a better and spacious house which was not possible before. I depend on small scale farming at home and getting money to build a house was a bit challenging."

"The biggest difference in my life is that I now have my own cow that I will be able to use in future. Once it has given birth I will be able to get milk out of it for my consumption and also selling for people to get money for my future project. I am sure this is help me achieve my dream of put a house in my own home. I am also now sitting on a very comfortably, seats, I no no longer? borrow seats from my neighbors again."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I am managed to pay school fee for my daughter on time and I am now stress free, my daughter is now learning very comfortably like other students without any worries. I also have very nice comfortable seat I do not need to worry when I have visitors like before."

"The biggest difference in my life is that my son now have his own sleeping room and there he does not need to look for a place to sleep in from the neighbour's as he used to do before. I also now have a very comfortable place where my visitors too can spend as compared to before when they were sleeping in my kitchen."
