My name is Joshua and I've been through challenges before. I've moved and changed cities in the past, but at least then I still had a place to go back to. 
 
We left the house at 3:30 in the morning on Wednesday January 8th from our house in Altadena when an evacuation order was placed. We went to a parking lot for two hours and realized that we couldn't stay there, so we had to figure out where else to go. We decided to go to our church and hung out there. We then spent most of the day thinking and wondering about what, or if anything, happened to the house. After 12 painful hours, we made it back to the house to check out the damage, hoping to find at least something salvageable. Instead, all we came back to is a pile of rubble. No, not just a pile of rubble, but a pile of memories. Many years' worth of video games, TVs, newly bought dishes, and things that we took for granted but now are just ash and dust. We have absolutely nothing.
 
I have been journaling for years and have years' worth of notebooks and books. My younger sisters had a whole room worth of toys, but now they are left with nothing except a single coloring book and a box of crayons. Hopes are not the highest, but we are trying to stay at least slightly optimistic for the future. I am the oldest of three, and my family and I have barely anything except ourselves and the clothes on our backs. Anything you can do to help is greatly appreciated.
