Supply Crate – Alicia

Alicia served in the Navy and for her, gaming has been an escape she could count on. Unfortunately due to life events, she just could not swing getting a new console.

As a Navy veteran, life after service has had its ups and downs, and recently, it’s been more of a struggle. I’ve been trying to get back on my feet, but after multiple job opportunities falling through, even with my Secret Clearance and DoD experience, it’s been a rough ride. Despite the setbacks, I keep pushing forward, but the stress and uncertainty can definitely take a toll.------Gaming has always been a huge mental escape for me, a way to destress, refocus, and stay connected with others. But right now, I don’t have a console, and with everything going on, I just can’t swing it. A Supply Crate would be a game-changer, literally. It would give me something positive to look forward to, help me stay engaged, and let me connect with fellow veterans and friends through gaming, which is something I could really use right now.------I’m someone who stays resilient, keeps a sense of humor even in tough times, and always supports those around me. This console wouldn’t just be entertainment, it would be a mental health boost, a stress reliever, and a way to stay in the fight, even when life throws curveballs.------I’d be incredibly grateful for the opportunity, and I know that a gaming console from Stack Up would have a real, positive impact on my well being.

Sounds like Alicia could use a rescue in the form of a new console. We hope that by sending her a new one, she can do all the things she listed and then some!

Hello Stack Up Team,

I wanted to take a moment to say thank you, truly. I just received my crate, and it honestly brought me to tears in the best way. Absolutely made my day, like I never get gifts or anything from anybody, like what, this is very special!

As someone living with PTSD and military sexual trauma, I don’t get out much these days and they can feel really long and heavy, it’s easy to feel invisible. But receiving this crate reminded me that there are still people out there who see us, care about us, and take action.

Gaming is more than just a hobby for me, it’s definitely a safe space. A place where I can find calm, distraction, and joy even on the hard days.

To the donors who made this possible "Eralm_237" like what, this is just amazing, I really appreciate you 🫶

You didn’t just send gear. You sent relief, comfort and a reminder that I matter. And for that, I’m incredibly grateful. Thank you for thinking of veterans like me, this is a really great thing Stack Up! You truly made a difference for a real person, in a real moment of need

With much love and appreciation, 🥹🥲
