Micah served twelve years in the army and was discharged in 2023 with a traumatic brain injury. He has been waiting seven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place. The plan: a vocational welding course and tools. The quote comes to $5,550. Micah is receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and is committed to recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces. I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden. Where the $5,550 goes: • Training provider fees: $3,050 • Housing deposit and first month: $1,950 • Transport to appointments: $290 • Essential household items: $260 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Angela
