I served eight years in the air force and was discharged in 2023 with hearing damage and PTSD. I have been waiting seven months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place. I have a plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote I have comes to $5,050. I'm receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and am committed to my recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces. I'd be grateful for any help and will share updates on how I'm doing. I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden. Where the $5,050 goes: • Training provider fees: $3,200 • Housing deposit and first month: $1,150 • Transport to appointments: $330 • Essential household items: $370 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Stay strong, Dennis. Hope this works out for you. God bless.

    • Sending strength, Dennis. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Dhaka.

      • Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Newcastle but we're thinking of you.

        • thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in London but we're thinking of you. Blessings.

          • Sending strength, Dennis. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Joliet so I could bring a meal.
