A service dog for Wunmi, an air force veteran in Ikeja
An air force veteran in Ikeja needs help with a vocational welding course and tools after leaving service with post-traumatic stress.
🇳🇬 Nigeria875 views
I served ten years in the air force and was discharged in 2024 with post-traumatic stress. I have been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a vocational welding course and tools. The quote I have comes to $250.
I'm receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and am committed to my recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
I'd be grateful for any help and will share updates on how I'm doing.
Money will be paid to the training provider and the landlord directly.
Where the $250 goes:
• Transport to appointments: $55
• Housing deposit and first month: $135
• Essential household items: $60
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hang in there, Wunmi. Your post was clear and honest. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
Rooting for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Abbottabad but we're thinking of you
