Urvashi served fourteen years in the marines and was discharged in 2024 with hearing damage and PTSD. She has been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place. The plan: a trained service dog and handler course. The quote comes to $350. Urvashi 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 $350 goes: • Essential household items: $75 • Transport to appointments: $45 • Housing deposit and first month: $230 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Siddharth
