A service dog for Funmilayo, a medical corps veteran in Epe
A medical corps veteran in Epe needs help with a trained service dog and handler course after leaving service with post-traumatic stress.
🇳🇬 Nigeria612 views
I served four years in the medical corps and was discharged in 2023 with post-traumatic stress. I have been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a trained service dog and handler course. The quote I have comes to $500.
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 $500 goes:
• Housing deposit and first month: $270
• Training provider fees: $180
• Essential household items: $50
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Thinking of you, Funmilayo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Maringá
rooting for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
