I served eight years in the air force and was discharged in 2024 with chronic tinnitus. I have been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote I have comes to $700.
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 $700 goes:
• Transport to appointments: $95
• Housing deposit and first month: $200
• Training provider fees: $405
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
Updates from Purvi
Quick update: $45 raised so far (6%). I made the first payment toward housing deposit and first month. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

So sorry you're going through this, Purvi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best
Sending good thoughts, Purvi. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Rohini.
Rooting for you, Purvi. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Jakarta.
wishing you the best, Purvi. This could happen to any of us. After 6 years in engineering I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Thinking of Rohini.
