Hudson served twelve years in the engineering corps and was discharged in 2021 with chronic tinnitus. He has been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place. The plan: a vocational welding course and tools. The quote comes to $3,850. Hudson 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 $3,850 goes: • Essential household items: $410 • Transport to appointments: $430 • Training provider fees: $3,010 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

  1. Quick update: $1,575 raised so far (41%). I made the first payment toward transport to appointments. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Quick update: $821 raised so far (21%). I met with the provider and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  • wishing you peace, Gloria. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up. All the best.

    • Thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Udaipur.

              Sending good thoughts. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
