I served six years in the engineering corps and was discharged in 2024 with a traumatic brain injury. I have been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a vocational welding course and tools. The quote I have comes to $850.
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.
I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden.
Where the $850 goes:
• Training provider fees: $410
• Housing deposit and first month: $250
• Transport to appointments: $60
• Essential household items: $130
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Darshan!
Sure. The biggest one is training provider fees, $410. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for asking.
Rooting for you, Darshan. Your post was clear and honest.
take care, Darshan. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings.
sending good thoughts, Darshan. Shared this with my family. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
