Paresh served twelve years in the marines and was discharged in 2024 with hearing damage and PTSD. He has been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a vocational welding course and tools. The quote comes to $600.
Paresh 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 $600 goes:
• Transport to appointments: $50
• Housing deposit and first month: $135
• Training provider fees: $415
Thank you so much.

Wishing you peace, Swapna. Shared it with a few friends. God bless.
Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 18 years in teaching I know how hard it is to ask for anything. God bless.
Take care. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Gaziantep.
Keep going, Swapna. Hope this works out for you.
thinking of you, Swapna. This could happen to any of us. God bless
You're not alone, Swapna. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
