"As a community, we are excited that a tremendous change has been observed. For instance, the lives of people have improved as they have been uplifted from poverty through the transfers. I am glad that the transfers are unconditional as one has freedom of choice in the spending area thus as livelihood changes."

"I want to see my family leaving the old house into our new home sleeping in peace and comfort.We also want to engage in producing cocoa in a few years to come so that will last generation to come for the families."

"By the Grace of God, I want to see myself and my family in a better position.My children are my source of motivation and I'm hoping they will take me out of poverty someday and make me experience a good life."

"I do appreciate this amazing and wonderful organisation for all of the effort they put into supporting us financially, especially in the rural area of Liberia, which helps reduce our struggle."

"I want to see myself in my own house with my entire family living a decent life.I'm most passionate about business.I intend to establish a business for my family's upkeep.I have been working tirelessly to fulfil my greatest desires to become a productive person."

"I kept my money to purchase 15 bags of cement and pay the person that will plaster my house. I decided to spend my transfer on a new house because it has always been my dream to build a house but I did not have money. Since GiveDirectly blessed me with this money, I thought it wise to bring my dream to reality."

"The completion of my house is something I am looking forward to in the next year or two. Moving into my own house will make me feel free and happy. I have a big heart in a good way; I've always wish to have my own privacy and I am glad that GiveDirectly granted me this opportunity to build myself a house."

"I used LD$ 25,000 on the processing of planks for the new house construction. I also bought six packs of nails for the house project. I decided to build house because I am a man but do not have my own house. I have family and I need my own space where my children will freely grow up."

"My husband and I have decided to buy 10 bags of cement to plaster our house. We've also decided to spend LD$8,000 on sand for the same house plastering. The house needs to be in good condition and look presentable that's why we've decided on spending our transfer that way. Anyone with a beautiful home attracts eyes and gain respect and pride. We want to be respected in our community."

"Leaving this thatch house to be in zinc house is what I hope to accomplish in the next few years. I wish to see my house completed and ready for me to move and start a fresh life; the beautiful life GiveDirectly wants me to live."
