After four years of service, Pari is raising funds for a vocational welding course and tools.
🇮🇳 Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India1,619 views
I served four years in the engineering corps and was discharged in 2024 with post-traumatic stress. I have been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a vocational welding course and tools. The quote I have comes to $600.
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 $600 goes:
• Transport to appointments: $70
• Training provider fees: $460
• Essential household items: $70
Every share and every dollar helps.

Rooting for you. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Aurangabad.
This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Rohini.
Thinking of you and your family, Pari. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Hyderabad.
