Tragedy the day before Xmas leaving me carless

Donation protected
Today the Unthinkable happened to me. I was driving to but Queensbury area to do a little last-minute Christmas shopping. I was on Route 4 where the speed limit is 55 when a truck in front of me slammed on his brakes because he had to stop for a woman in front of him who had stopped to miss a dog. The man slammed on his brakes gaving me absolutely no time to react I clipped his rear end and veeredboff into the nearest driveway/snowbank. Things in my life right now have been very chaotic and I actually just got a new job i start Monday. That along with dealing with have the amounts of anxiety and depression throughout this last year has really made it entirely hard for me. My car was paid off. No it wasn't Perfect or beautiful but I loved my car and now it's totaled. The whole accident was claimed a no-fault because every person in the accident was due to the dog in the road however I will not be receiving any sort of check because I only have lability on my vehicle and I'm really just hoping that maybe somebody out there would be able to give anything to help me be able to get a new car so that I can make it to my new job and he able to continue to transport my daughter who I am blessed was not with me. Ive gone through a lot of obstacles in my life and overcome a lot of them. I was so thrilled yesterday when I got the news that I get to start a new awesome job after having a bad experience recently. Seeing my car in ruins I could barely even keep my composure.  I feel to me knees sobbing in disbelief. None of us involved were issued a Ticket. I had one goal go get a place now I need to replace a vehicle with no means to do so. Please don't feel pressured to give anything. Rightt now I'm still just receiving a little over $100 a week in unemployment which basically just covers the bills and Necessities for me and my daughter. This was a total tragedy and although I'm alive and grateful I have no idea how I'm going to be able to get a new vehicle to make it to my new job and I'm praying that maybe somebody out there would be willing to help but if you don't I also understand. This happening the day before Christmas kind of hit me in a different way I remember getting out of the vehicle and total shock. I was glad to have the officers and paramedics who were so kind and continued to assure me that I'm just lucky to be alive and cars are replaceable but I need a car I have a daughter and I have a new job that's going to help me further reach my goals of moving out and becoming an independent woman after years of stupid choices. I set the amount high but in no way do I expect to receive that much if any at all but right now this is about as much as I can do to try to help myself. I'm still in shock I'm sore all over. I bit my tongue so hard it bleed for an hour. My arms are very sore from being rammed again thr steering wheel but otherwise doing okay. Just emotionally exhausted and stressed as one could imagind Please don't feel pressured  to give anything to this but right now I'm still just in total shock. If anyone can can find it in there heart to help me towards my goal of any sort of car I'd appreciate from the bottom of my heart.
