After the Storm: Tornado Relocation

Donation protected
My family of four (Zippo the boxer thinks he's people) enjoys a pretty simple routine. I come home from work, attempt to feed our 16 month old dinner as he throws everything presented to him over the side of his high chair while the dog eyeballs the scraps. Bathtime, bottle, then bed comes next. A simple nightly routine that has been horribly interrupted due to the F1 tornado that ruined our building. City officials declared our building an unsafe structure - merely one classification away from being condemned. AC is a thing of the past as compressors float beneath pools and are scattered around the property. The gas has been turned off indefinitely. Walking into the apartment is a soggy job thanks to the standing water that came in through the now non-existing third floor roof. The wreckage is something you only see in disaster films.  We are thankfully all well (the baby slept through the entire storm), but the damage is irrepairable and we have been forced out of our tiny comfort zone and into a temporary stay at a nearby hotel. This is our plea for assistance to find a new place, foot the pet and security deposit, and find a new place to regain our simple, normal life. Please help us regain what's been torn from us.  Any and all help is appreciated, as we have no aid in uprooting and finding a new, safe place for our child, dog, and new life outside of the wreckage. A random Texas tornado has left our home in ruins, and any help that can be granted is sought. I never thought we'd be in this precarious position. Please consider helping in any way that you can. We've got the hotel for the next 3 days. After that, plans are vague. Hopefully this fund will allow us a few months' rent until tax returns arrive, as we never imagined we'd need to find a new home so unexpectedly. Despite the appeal of being transported to Oz and frolicking in Munchkin Land, things are not always better over the rainbow after an insanely unexpected tornado.
