A service dog for Maverick, a marines veteran in Montréal
A marines veteran in Montréal needs help with a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment after leaving service with chronic tinnitus.

I served eight years in the marines and was discharged in 2023 with chronic tinnitus. I have been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote I have comes to $4,600.
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 $4,600 goes:
• Training provider fees: $2,200
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,800
• Transport to appointments: $390
• Essential household items: $210
I hope life is good to you.

You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Please keep us posted. Blessings.
Sending strength, Maverick. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Birmingham so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Montréal.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Toronto.
thinking of you and your family, Maverick. Hope this works out for you. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
