Veteran in need: Lanre's next mission is stability
Lanre served eight years in the army; $650 would cover a trained service dog and handler course.

I served eight years in the army and was discharged in 2021 with hearing damage and PTSD. 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 $650.
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 $650 goes:
• Transport to appointments: $60
• Housing deposit and first month: $250
• Training provider fees: $340
With deep gratitude,
Lanre

Thinking of you and your family, Lanre. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Gwagwalada.
wishing you peace, Lanre. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings
