Lan served six years in the engineering corps and was discharged in 2024 with a traumatic brain injury. She has been waiting nine 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 $2,700. Lan 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 $2,700 goes: • Essential household items: $450 • Transport to appointments: $270 • Housing deposit and first month: $1,980 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Công

    hope this works out for you. After 17 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.

          you're not alone, Công. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Springfield.
