"Like I said, I am a trained tailor who has been lacking financial muscle to purchase a tailoring machine but thanks to GD I have finally managed to buy that machine. In the coming years I dream of building on this momentum gained by ensuring that my business blossoms and I build my house so that I have a decent and comfortable place I can home where I am able to support my family through returns from my business."

"We strive to achieve food security in our HH yearly, for we believe that if we have food we can be able to work and be productive, since we are energised, and achieve all our dreams."

"We are peasant farmers and we rely on our farm harvests for our sustainability year in year out. Our dream has always been to have an alternative source of income, thus, any business so that if we don't harvest as expected we are able to still survive off our business. This is what we hope to accomplish in the coming year(s)."

"The cash I started receiving to build my own house is the best thing GiveDirectly has done in my life. GiveDirectly people are good people; they do not decide for us. They respect us during interviews and talk to us kindly. GiveDirectly does not have a bad name."

"GiveDirectly is my savior! They saved my mother's life, tho she has not fully recovered, her health will be restored soon. GiveDirectly has brought happiness to me and a lot of other people in this Country. Everywhere I go and mention GiveDirectly, people can talk about the many good things they are doing for Liberian citizens. We are happy for GiveDirectly being with us. They have done no bad."

"In the coming year or two, I hope to complete my house project and move in it. Getting this house completed will save me a lot from stress, the stress of waking up from my sleep to attend to the rain eventhough I was living under a roof. I will find Total peace and happiness on e my house is completed."

"I've Planned to spend 20 thousand Liberian Dollars on planks sawing; the rest of my money will be used on gas and workmanship for the same planks processing. The planks will be used to make my doors and also roof my new house. I decided to build a house with the money because where I stay presently is a family house, but as a man, I need my own property which will have me earn respect in the community. As I don't have my own place to stay now, people do not listen to me when I speak. There is lack of respect."

"I didn't have a good place to sleep and Givedirectly gave me cash and I'm about to build a decent house for the family.grateful to God almighty and to Givedirectly for their support."

"I'm a mother of five children, two girls and three boys, alone with my spouse.Everyone of us sleeps in the same room. Life has really been difficult for us.When we produce our crops, they don't yield well enough to sustain us.My spouse sometimes goes in the bush in search of palmnuts to sell them before we have food to eat.The transfer received from Givedirectly we intended to build a house for the family to stay in."

"On February 23, around 4:00 p.m., I received a message confirming the receipt of my first transfer from GiveDirectly. I confirmed it with excitement because I had expected it within the stated range of dates in the middle of that month. I was at home with my children when I received a message, and I was so happy that I could not withdraw the same day, but I shared the news with my family members and went to pick it up the next day from a nearby shopping center."
