Help Araceli get back to civilian life: housing deposit and training
Araceli served ten years in the army; $3,100 would cover a first month of rent and transport to job interviews.

I served ten years in the army and was discharged in 2023 with hearing damage and PTSD. I have been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote I have comes to $3,100.
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.
I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden.
Where the $3,100 goes:
• Housing deposit and first month: $2,150
• Transport to appointments: $400
• Essential household items: $550
With deep gratitude,
Araceli

Hope things get better soon, Araceli. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Oaxaca de Juárez.
So sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Flint
Sending strength, Araceli. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Kochi.
