"I had been eagerly awaiting the funds after enrollment. I even used to be anxious when I received a text message thinking it is the transfer. It finally came and we were elated!"

"I now live in a good-looking house that I never thought possible. Things are tough for us and getting cash is not easy, not to mention the huge amounts as GiveDirectly sent us. It was the first time in my life to receive such an amount of cash. Thank you for the funds."

"Seeing the new house that is currently unfolding in our home, courtesy of GiveDirectly, is the biggest difference in my daily life. It would have taken up to five years of struggle to raise funds little by little so as to build the house. Thank you for the funds."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is the completion of the construction. I had given up on completing the construction after my husband lost the job he used to do hence making it hard for us to provide for my growing family and completing the house construction. I am so happy currently to live in a good house I had wished for long to have it."

"My transfer came in at around 0317hrs when I was asleep together with my family. When I saw the text I felt so happy and sleepless, I was eager to go to mobile money agent to withdraw it. I was so happy."

"In the next six months, I expect to have constructed a kitchen for my spouse so thta she can get an easy time while cooking."

"My life currently different from how it would have been if I never receive the transfer in that, I am able to pay school fees easily unlike before. I was about to drop out of school thanks to GiveDirectly I managed to continue with my studies after paying school fees."

"I expect my life to change in the next six months in that I will have cattle such as a goat and a hen which I can sell anytime to buy food and take care of my other needs too."
