Veteran in need: Kehinde's next mission is stability

Asaba
I served four 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 trained service dog and handler course. The quote I have comes to $300. 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 $300 goes: • Transport to appointments: $75 • Essential household items: $65 • Housing deposit and first month: $160 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Kehinde
