I served ten years in the engineering corps and was discharged in 2024 with chronic tinnitus. I have been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place. I have a plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote I have comes to $4,350. 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 $4,350 goes: • Training provider fees: $2,300 • Transport to appointments: $240 • Housing deposit and first month: $1,810 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Adriana
