I served twelve years in the air force and was discharged in 2025 with a service-related knee injury. I have been waiting fourteen 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 $450.
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 $450 goes:
• Essential household items: $95
• Housing deposit and first month: $155
• Training provider fees: $200
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Prakash.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. essential household items comes first ($95) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.

Wishing you peace, Prakash. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Bacoor.

Hope things get better soon. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Los Angeles donated after I showed her your page.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Prakash?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about essential household items, advice is welcome too. Let me know if you want more detail.
Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Ikeja but we're thinking of you. God bless.
