Keith served ten years in the army and was discharged in 2023 with a back injury. He has been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place. The plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote comes to $2,500. Keith 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 $2,500 goes: • Transport to appointments: $400 • Housing deposit and first month: $1,650 • Essential household items: $450 Glad we found this place. - Vivian
