Family in need

Donation protected
We are a family of 4. Me, my boyfriend and our two daughters. We have a 7 year old and a 10 month old.  The day of the fire my boyfriend took our oldest to school down in paradise. We lived in magalia. Then he went to work in Chico. I heard and saw the smoke so I called my sister to come get me and baby cause she had a car and phone to help us and get ahold of my boyfriend at work. We tried getting down to paradise to get my oldest from school but couldn't get threw. Thank God we got ahold of her dad that live down there and he was able to get her. My oldest has a different dad then the baby. We headed out and lost service before I knew my oldest was safe out of town. Stressed for hours not knowing if she was ok. They got out in time but drove pass the flames. Finally we made it to Chico and met up with my boyfriend cause he couldn't come in town. We lost Everything and our house to the fire. Only able to grab a few things for the girls. We are now located in yuba with family temporary. My oldest is with her dad still and I only saw her 2 days this whole month. I useally have her half the week every week. Our car my bf was using broke down and cost alot to tow. Then we used his parents car that we had to give back. We got help get a car for ourselves. Our dog went missing on dec 2nd up in magalia. FEMA approved then deny me. SBA loan deny me cause I lost both jobs to the fire so no way to pay back a loan. We are needing stuff since we lost everything. Raiseing money to be able to have a place to live for my little family. And gas for travel back in forth for my boyfriend work and to go see my daughter.
