I served ten years in the marines and was discharged in 2024 with hearing damage and PTSD. I have been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote I have comes to $400.
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 $400 goes:
• Essential household items: $60
• Transport to appointments: $25
• Housing deposit and first month: $315
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hope it all works out, Chidinma. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Los Angeles.
Sending love, Chidinma. Shared it with a few friends. I'll check back for the next update. God bless
