Marina served twelve years in the infantry and was discharged in 2024 with post-traumatic stress. 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 $750.
Marina 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 $750 goes:
• Training provider fees: $300
• Transport to appointments: $70
• Housing deposit and first month: $380
Thank you for reading my story.
