Mason served four years in the marines and was discharged in 2023 with chronic tinnitus. He has been waiting seven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place. The plan: a vocational welding course and tools. The quote comes to $2,250. Mason 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 $2,250 goes: • Transport to appointments: $610 • Housing deposit and first month: $1,100 • Essential household items: $540 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
