Veteran in need: Vivian's next mission is stability
A marines veteran in Ibadan needs help with a vocational welding course and tools after leaving service with chronic tinnitus.
🇳🇬 Ibadan, Oyo, Nigeria654 views
Kingsley served fourteen years in the marines and was discharged in 2022 with chronic tinnitus. He 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 $500.
Kingsley 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 $500 goes:
• Training provider fees: $300
• Housing deposit and first month: $160
• Essential household items: $40
