Help Vaishali get back to civilian life: housing deposit and training
An infantry veteran in New Delhi needs help with a first month of rent and transport to job interviews after leaving service with chronic tinnitus.
🇮🇳 India1,420 views
I served twelve years in the infantry and was discharged in 2024 with chronic tinnitus. I have been waiting eleven 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 $550.
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 $550 goes:
• Transport to appointments: $70
• Essential household items: $65
• Training provider fees: $415
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Vaishali.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. transport to appointments is the biggest at $70. Ask me anything else.
best of luck, Vaishali. Shared this with my family. Love from Phoenix.
shared this with my family. Sent it to 13 people at work.
You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
thinking of you and your family, Vaishali. I hope things turn around soon. All the best.
Best of luck, Vaishali. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
