Waylon served four years in the army and was discharged in 2024 with a back injury. He has been waiting nine 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 $3,550. Waylon 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 $3,550 goes: • Housing deposit and first month: $1,550 • Transport to appointments: $340 • Training provider fees: $1,660 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

          Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Waylon!
