Chinedu served eight years in the air force and was discharged in 2025 with a service-related knee injury. He has been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote comes to $600.
Chinedu is receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and is committed to recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden.
Where the $600 goes:
• Transport to appointments: $60
• Housing deposit and first month: $340
• Training provider fees: $200
Thanks for being kind about this.

So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Warren this morning.
