Marie served eight years in the infantry; $3,850 would cover a first month of rent and transport to job interviews.
Updates from Marie
Good news. Because of your gifts ($682 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Small update. $522 so far, I made the first payment toward transport to appointments.
Small update. $343 so far, I met with the provider and confirmed the amounts.

Wishing you peace, Marie. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Mangaluru.
Your post was clear and honest. After 18 years in engineering I know how hard it is to ask for anything. God bless
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Jules.
Sending love, Marie. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Jakarta Barat.
Good luck, Marie. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Best of luck, Marie. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to San Jose so I could bring a meal
Wishing you the best, Marie. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best.
You're not alone, Marie. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
Rooting for you, Marie. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Jaipur.
Thinking of you, Marie. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless
Take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Marseille.
