Josiane served eight years; now needs help to get home
An engineering corps veteran in Grenoble needs help with a first month of rent and transport to job interviews after leaving service with a service-related knee injury.

I served eight years in the engineering corps and was discharged in 2023 with a service-related knee injury. I have been waiting seven 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 $5,050.
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 $5,050 goes:
• Training provider fees: $2,900
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,350
• Transport to appointments: $440
• Essential household items: $360
Thank you so much.

best of luck, Josiane. Hope you get there. After 29 years in construction I know how hard it is to ask for anything.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Kyoto.
