I served fourteen years in the engineering corps and was discharged in 2025 with a back injury. I have been waiting seven months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place. I have a plan: a trained service dog and handler course. The quote I have comes to $700. 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 $700 goes: • Housing deposit and first month: $310 • Training provider fees: $310 • Essential household items: $80 With deep gratitude, Anjali

    Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Bang Khen donated after I showed her your page. Take care.

      Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Petrópolis so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Mumbai.
