Pradeep served eight years; now needs help to get home
Pradeep served eight years in the infantry; $600 would cover a trained service dog and handler course.

I served eight years in the infantry and was discharged in 2025 with a back injury. I have been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a trained service dog and handler course. 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:
• Training provider fees: $185
• Housing deposit and first month: $300
• Transport to appointments: $80
• Essential household items: $35
Every share and every dollar helps.

Keep going, Pradeep. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings.
