Carlos served fourteen years in the infantry and was discharged in 2024 with a service-related knee injury. He has been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote comes to $2,700.
Carlos is receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and is committed to recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
Money will be paid to the training provider and the landlord directly.
Where the $2,700 goes:
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,250
• Training provider fees: $1,200
• Transport to appointments: $250

Sending love, Nuria. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
