I served four years in the medical corps and was discharged in 2022 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 first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote I have comes to $4,200. 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 $4,200 goes: • Transport to appointments: $350 • Housing deposit and first month: $1,900 • Training provider fees: $1,950 With deep gratitude, Marlene

    Thanks for sharing this, Marlene. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Lagos donated after I showed her your page. All the best.

        Sending love. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Munich

          Keep going, Marlene. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Bristol so I could bring a meal. Take care.

          • Rajesh D. Jain

            Good luck. Hope you get there. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
