I served four years in the marines and was discharged in 2025 with hearing damage and PTSD. I have been waiting eleven 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 $4,650. 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 $4,650 goes: โ€ข Training provider fees: $2,100 โ€ข Housing deposit and first month: $2,000 โ€ข Transport to appointments: $230 โ€ข Essential household items: $320 With deep gratitude, Piper
