🇮🇱 Haifa, Haifa, Israel5,016 views
Dafna served fourteen years in the medical corps and was discharged in 2023 with a traumatic brain injury. She has been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a vocational welding course and tools. The quote comes to $4,400.
Dafna 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 $4,400 goes:
• Training provider fees: $2,200
• Essential household items: $410
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,790
Thanks for reading all this.

Sending love, Nir. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Buenos Aires this morning. Thinking of Haifa
Sending strength, Nir. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
Hope you get there. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
Hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Haifa
