"In my opinion, GiveDirecyly does well by ensuring that I am well-informed about how to secure the cash transfer. Also, they issued me a phone, which was the most outstanding experience so far since I have never owned one before. Additionally, I can now communicate with my family with ease, unlike before. Therefore, I do not see anything that needs changing."

"By early next year, I hope to have repaired the roof of my house, which is corroded and almost collapsing from one side. To achieve this, I plan to save some amount from the cash transfers to buy roofing materials like iron sheets and nails, then hire a builder to renovate the roof. I would also be happy if I bought a new mattress because the old one is worn out, which gives me uncomfortable sleep at night. "

"The persistent drought in my region has made farming activities impossible to prosper, which has forced us to sustain our families by buying food rather than growing it. As a result, it is challenging to save the cash transfers to accomplish other goals like owning livestock. Although financial constraints are difficult to escape from, considering our growing family of nine, I hope to be able to save part of each future cash transfer to buy a goat or chickens. Am certain that keeping livestock will help me raise money for my children’s school fees. My goal is to support all seven of them throughout all education levels and to college. "

"My attention is currently on securing more livestock, specifically goats and chickens, and letting them reproduce and expand the herd. In the future, after the cash program comes to an end, I could sell these goats to generate funds that will allow me to provide for my family’s needs such as food and school fees. Since I already have one from previous transfers, I hope to increase the number to five by the end of the year. "

"From the beginning stages of enrollment through the final stages, the organization managed its activities flawlessly. Everyone was respectful and treated us with decency. From the beginning, we got the sense that they appreciated our feedback and gave us the best services they could."

"I have an idea that I want to put into practice once I have some money. I want to set up a shop where I can sell groceries and other household goods. By doing this, I will be working in a productive light-duty position that will allow me to generate revenue, allowing me to accomplish other things that I am presently unable to do due to a lack of funds."

"Good health and the renovation of my house are my focus outlined to be accomplish in the soonest possible time with the help of the transfer received from Givedirectly. With the accomplishment of such goals, I will be very happy to live happily without any stress or worries about rain anymore."

"Having to support my children single-handedly yet I have a spouse is quite challenging. Meeting our daily needs, requires me to engage in vending local brew and charcoal burning. Despite all the hard work, my children often miss school because I fail to pay fees on time. This has greatly affected their performance and it makes me worry of their future."

"The house that I am currently living in is in a dilapidated state and it had always been my wish to build a new one but due to the lack of funds, I had never managed to. My goal for the next one year is to have a good house for my family, and to achieve this, I plan to save part of my transfers and also use the money that I would be getting from table banking to help build my house."

"Apart from living in a poorly conditioned house, I feel that I do not have any other source of income. Therefore, when the year began, I developed a goal of venturing into livestock keeping. Once I accomplish the goal of building a better house, my second focus will be buying and raising domestic fowl and goats. They are very profitable and can help me with some money when I am financially down. Currently, I have three goats, but I want to raise more. The rest of the transfer will help to acquire food for my household since I am the sole breadwinner."
