Help me move to my dream job!

Donation protected
I just got my dream job! I'm going to help a new federal judge set up his chambers.  But I need help getting there. Where? Maryland.  Why?  I've always had public-service jobs, and so have never raked in the big bucks.  What I had squirreled away disappeared after one crazy year.  How crazy?  Let me enumerate:

1. My apartment building caught on fire. 
2. My wonderful, sweet, blind puppy Penny died in my arms, likely from a congenital brain tumor (due to inbreeding in a puppy mill).
3. My dad's cancer came back (he's doing great now!)
4. I broke my leg while walking Shai, the pup I adopted a few months after Penny died.  Shai was deaf and blind in one eye, and getting on in years.
5.  Because of the broken leg, I couldn't walk for two months, and my mom had to come out to take care of me.  Even now, I have daily pain from the broken bone and the metal rods and pins keeping it all together.
6.  After only six months with my wonderful, amazing dog Shai, he died in my arms after having a stroke.

It was quite year (there was more, but I hit the major high/low-lights). For the past six months or so, things have been looking up.  And then yesterday, I got offered a job that is perfect for me!  I just need money to get myself down there.  So help out a nice person who tries always to do nice things.  Spread some karmic love!
