I served fourteen years in the army and was discharged in 2022 with post-traumatic stress. I have been waiting seven 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 $4,400. 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 $4,400 goes: • Training provider fees: $2,450 • Housing deposit and first month: $1,100 • Transport to appointments: $470 • Essential household items: $380 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • Best of luck. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Saint Petersburg so I could bring a meal. Love from A Coruña

          Take care, Clément. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.

          • thinking of you and your family, Clément. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
