"Currently, my daily life is surrounded with a lot of joy and happiness because I have paid off the mortgage amount and regained ownership of my land for crop cultivation. I send my sincere appreciation to GiveDirectly family and the donor community."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that, I have got 2 acres of land that will increase my crop production and this will help me in feeding my children. I didn't have any acre of land to cultivate, I hired small plots of land to cultivate which resulted to low crop production."

"The moment I saw the mobile money message, I became very happy. I came out of my hut and ululated with the rest of the community members. There was joy allover the community."

"It was a bout mid night when I heard a message on my phone, I gave my grand child to check and she told me that, Grand mother, be happy, you have received money from GiveDirectly. I felt excited and had the best sleep ever."

"My daily life is totally different in that, my health has improved. In the past, my health deteriorated due to stress over how to get money for completing my house and meeting family needs like clothing and fees for my children. In addition, the dust in the house used to infect me and the family with flu."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I now sleep in good bedding and I have many nice kitchen utensils. I used to sleep on a mat and I had few kitchen utensils before I got the transfer."

"The moment I received my money, I became very happy because GiveDirectly had honestly fulfilled its promise to me."

"When I received the mobile money, I called my child to check my phone the next day. When she read the message, I became very happy and even ululated alot with joy. This is because I had never received such an enormous amount of money in my life."

"Currently, my daily life is different in that, I can afford to change clothes and do farming in a more secure manner because I put on my gumboots while in the garden, I want to thank and appeciate GiveDirectly for the support."

"I expect my life to have changed in the next six months in that I will have completed house building and connected electrically to the house. My children will have enough light and time to study in the evenings. If GiveDirectly visits me in six months' time, you will be surprised by how much improvement in my home has brought to me and especially my children."
