Help Zainab get back to civilian life: housing deposit and training
Zainab served twelve years in the engineering corps; $700 would cover a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment.
🇳🇬 Abuja FCT, Nigeria614 views
I served twelve years in the engineering corps and was discharged in 2025 with a back injury. I have been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote I have comes to $700.
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.
Money will be paid to the training provider and the landlord directly.
Where the $700 goes:
• Training provider fees: $280
• Housing deposit and first month: $270
• Transport to appointments: $75
• Essential household items: $75
If you're reading this, thank you.
