enrolled.
"My husband was working with Komaza and life was good on my side. He was laid off one year ago and came back home. Since then life has changed completely. The family used to take three meals per day but now we take one meal in the evening. My two children are now weak. Sometimes they miss school due to hunger. I used to do the shopping for the family every after six months but now I have to was clothes after two weeks due to lack of washing detergents. My skin has now turned black unlike before. Lack of job is the challenge I am facing in life."

"GiveDirectly has done me well to the extend that I don't even know how to appreciate them for what you people has done for me.
Every year my children use to be out of school due to lack of paying their fees on time but since GiveDirectly started helping me through their program, I have been empower to the extend that my children are in school and with out being put out of class.
Moreover, the market I use to sell I was always breaking in because it was from hand to month but now I am selling every day and all this happening through the intervention of GiveDirectly.
I pray that GiveDirectly continue their great job by giving us money freely and changing our lives in all part of Liberia."
