Camila served twelve years in the infantry and was discharged in 2025 with post-traumatic stress. She has been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place. The plan: a vocational welding course and tools. The quote comes to $2,250. Camila is receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and is committed to recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces. I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden. Where the $2,250 goes: • Transport to appointments: $330 • Training provider fees: $1,550 • Essential household items: $370 Thanks for being kind about this. - Jorge

        • hope it all works out, Jorge. Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

          • Rooting for you, Jorge. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
