I served fourteen years in the marines and was discharged in 2025 with chronic tinnitus. 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 $400. 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 $400 goes: • Transport to appointments: $50 • Training provider fees: $250 • Essential household items: $100 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Naveen

Updates from Naveen

  1. Update from Mumbai: I met with the provider and confirmed the amounts. We're at 66% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
