I served six years in the infantry and was discharged in 2025 with a service-related knee 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 $3,150.
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 $3,150 goes:
• Training provider fees: $1,200
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,300
• Transport to appointments: $330
• Essential household items: $320
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Take care, Jonas. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
Thinking of you, Jonas. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in George this morning.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Udaipur donated after I showed her your page.
Stay strong, Jonas. Hope you get there. Blessings.
Wishing you the best, Jonas. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
