Rahul served twelve years in the infantry and was discharged in 2023 with hearing damage and PTSD. He has been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote comes to $700.
Rahul 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 $700 goes:
• Essential household items: $70
• Transport to appointments: $80
• Training provider fees: $550
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
