Víctor served four years in the army and was discharged in 2024 with chronic tinnitus. He has been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote comes to $4,650.
Víctor is receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and is committed to recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
Money will be paid to the training provider and the landlord directly.
Where the $4,650 goes:
• Training provider fees: $2,450
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,100
• Transport to appointments: $640
• Essential household items: $460
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Updates from Paula
Quick update: $3,192 raised so far (69%). I made the first payment toward housing deposit and first month. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Update from Spokane: I met with the provider and confirmed the amounts. We're at 31% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
