Favour served fourteen years in the navy and was discharged in 2024 with a back injury. She has been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place. The plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote comes to $550. Favour 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 $550 goes: • Training provider fees: $410 • Essential household items: $80 • Transport to appointments: $60 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Tayo

  • Good luck, Tayo. Hope this works out for you. Love from Ciudad de México.

    • Hang in there, Tayo. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
