I am a mother of two children and they are attending school in Buchanan, when I received the money from GiveDirectly, I used some to pay my children tuitions and to buy Zinc to roof my kitchen.

GiveDirectly did a good thing by helping me with money without doing any work so I can fix my kitchen and support my children in school.
How is your life different than it would have been if you never received the transfer?
I am already old so in the coming years, I want to keep getting money to help me support my children in school.

What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
"My current challenge is who to help me. Currently, I am a widow who don't have someone to hel me. I depend on the small money I get whenever I refer pregnant women to the government's health facility in Boegeezay. This is the only means I have to survive".
What is the happiest part of your day?
"Since the past months, nothing has yet to make me happy. I worry every day and night trying to find means to see how my children school feels can be paid and to establish small business to see how I can support my children since the death of my husband".
What does receiving this money mean to you?
"It is my plan that when I am selected to benefit, I will use some of the money to pay my children school fees, use some to expand my farm and the balance to do small business".
