I served fourteen years in the air force and was discharged in 2024 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 first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote I have comes to $1,550. 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 $1,550 goes: • Housing deposit and first month: $980 • Essential household items: $380 • Transport to appointments: $190 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Theresa

    Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Jimma this morning.

    • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Theresa.

      • Good luck, Theresa. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
