"I went home to relax after a long day of working in the hot sun at the farm. After finishing my lunch, I heard my phone ring and discovered that I had received money from GiveDirectly. I was overjoyed and overjoyed. Later that evening, I told my husband the good news, and he was equally grateful to God for the wonderful gift that came our way when we least expected it. We then began to plan how we would use our transfer."

"The main difference is that we were able to improve our living conditions. This is because we were able to construct a two-bedroom house with a veranda. Due to financial constraints, I was unable to raise funds for the construction previously due to school fee obligations. I am grateful for the great accomplishments I have attained."

"Harvesting rainwater had long been a dream of mine because I wanted to have enough water for our consumption as well as the consumption of my neighbours. Though I was unable to realize it due to other financial obligations. I am a local businessman who is happily married. When I received my transfer, I spent $370 on starting the project, which included installing gutters around the house and purchasing two 5000-litre water tanks. I then purchased a high-density mattress and gave the remaining funds to my wife to spend on groceries. I'm overjoyed that my dream of collecting rainwater has finally come true."

"My aim is to set aside some cash each month and purchase two breeding cows by the end of the year. They grow more quickly, and after a year I may sell some of them to make money to buy more, as well as utilize some of the proceeds to help pay for the building supplies needed to build a house for my kids. Since our house just has one room, there isn't enough room for everyone to sleep comfortably. They presently sleep at my neighbor's house, but I don't feel comfortable with the situation because I can't keep an eye on them when they are far away. Additionally, it is dangerous for them to walk at night."

"GiveDirectly excels at making dreams come true. Thanks to GiveDirectly, my kids are in a school that will challenge them mentally. I set up a business for my wife, giving her peace of mind and a chance to grow herself. Not to mention the self-respect and pride the funds gave us by allowing us to tackle our financial challenges freely and in a manner that we deemed fit for us. We are eternally thankful."

"GiveDirectly excels at making recipients feel in control of their situations. By allowing myself and other recipients in my village to decide on how to utilize our transfers, they give you the ability to feel that you are actively changing your life through your means. We are eternally grateful for what they do and ask them to continue to bless countless others."

"GiveDirectly has completely transformed the lives of all the recipients in our area. If they had not been so gracious as to choose us, we would possibly never have achieved many of the things we have. They excel at making recipients feel understood and accepted, rather than judged and demo used for the situations they find themselves in."

"I hope to complete my house work before this year ends"

"Having a home of my own has been the major goal. I want to see my family and I in our new home sharing fun and living happily together. I believe with hard work and delegation I will achieve it ."

"When conflicts arise about the cash transfer, Givedirectly always resolves issues in the best possible way. Many people are happy and satisfied with the way their money is spent without any influence of anyone."
