Jayden served eight years in the air force and was discharged in 2023 with a back injury. He has been waiting seven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote comes to $4,150.
Jayden 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 $4,150 goes:
• Training provider fees: $1,500
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,900
• Transport to appointments: $310
• Essential household items: $440
Thanks for being kind about this.

thanks for sharing this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Cầu Giấy.
Hope it all works out, Beth. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best.
Rooting for you, Beth. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Southampton
Wishing you the best. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out!
I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care
keep going, Beth. Shared this with my family.
