Olivier served twelve years in the medical corps; $2,500 would cover a first month of rent and transport to job interviews.

Alice served twelve years in the medical corps and was discharged in 2025 with hearing damage and PTSD. She has been waiting seven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote comes to $2,500.
Alice is receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and is committed to recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden.
Where the $2,500 goes:
• Training provider fees: $1,050
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,250
• Transport to appointments: $200
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Toronto
Thank you. If you're in Toronto I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Appreciate you taking the time.
Shared it with a few friends. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best
Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Thane donated after I showed her your page. God bless
Sending strength, Olivier. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Valencia but we're thinking of you
