Aarav served four years in the engineering corps and was discharged in 2025 with a service-related knee injury. He has been waiting seven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote comes to $600.
Aarav is receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and is committed to recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
Money will be paid to the training provider and the landlord directly.
Where the $600 goes:
• Training provider fees: $390
• Essential household items: $80
• Housing deposit and first month: $130
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Hope things get better soon, Chhaya. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Sending love. Your post was clear and honest. All the best
