Veteran in need: Wesley's next mission is stability
After twelve years of service, Wesley is raising funds for a trained service dog and handler course.

I served twelve years in the air force and was discharged in 2023 with a traumatic brain injury. I have been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a trained service dog and handler course. The quote I have comes to $3,750.
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 $3,750 goes:
• Training provider fees: $1,450
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,500
• Transport to appointments: $470
• Essential household items: $330
Thanks for being kind about this.
- Wesley

Best of luck, Wesley. Shared it with a few friends.
Wishing you the best. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Good luck, Wesley. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Hyderabad.
Rooting for you, Wesley. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
