Wiesbaden
I served twelve years in the army and was discharged in 2023 with post-traumatic stress. I have been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place. I have a plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote I have comes to $3,000. 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 $3,000 goes: • Housing deposit and first month: $910 • Essential household items: $550 • Training provider fees: $1,540 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Renate

Updates from Renate

  1. Thank you all. We're at 7% now ($223). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward training provider fees.

  2. Quick update: $90 raised so far (3%). the plan for housing deposit and first month is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
