sergiotoscano“I am creating the page for a coworker on behalf of the Little Tujunga Hotshots. One of our firefighters lost his home during the Sand Fire on the Angeles National Forest on July 23, 2016.

“Sergio Toscano, a Senior firefighter for the Little Tujunga Hotshots lost his home when the Sand Fire burned through the Bear Divide Ranger station and destroying his home. Sergio has been a firefighter for the US Forest Service for the past four years. He took a lead firefighting position with the Little Tujunga Hotshots this year and prior to his time fighting fire was a US Marine for four years. Sergio has a young son who was with his mother at the time of the fire.

“At the time his home was lost, Sergio was on assignment in the Cleveland National Forest near San Diego on a wildfire that burned over 2000 acres with no structures lost. He heard of his lost only after coming off the fireline and was immediately taken home to start the process of recovering what ever he can.

“He is unaware that this page is being created for him and everything that is collected will go straight to him so he can begin to rebuild what he has lost. Any little help will be greatly appreciated and being a guy of little words, Sergio will be speechless at any generosity he receives.”

    Hi everyone here. What Christine Coleman said is very true though i may not know her. I experienced it first hand also. It was this organization called fidelity loan Finance (f.l.f)that really helped me to pay my medical bills when i was in dare need of money because i am a widow. A friend of mine also directed me to them. when i was about to do a major operation and i had no money at that time, they came to my rescue and in less than 48 hours, i got my loan. But to say the truth, i was nervous and scared at first because i have been scammed twice. But when i summoned up courage and follow their lending policies along with my friends advice, at the end i found myself smiling. If not for them, maybe i would have been dead by now. I have even taken another loan from them start my business after my recovery which i am also paying back now. My only advice now is that any body who is really in need of loan should contact them with their email via, fidelityloanfinance(at)financier(dot)com and get a loan from them. Thanks.(Louisa)
