Our hearts are with Tony and Amanda Bland today after the devastating loss of their home in a fire. Tony and Amanda are active members of the Washburn community and have always been willing to lend a helping hand to others. Now they need our support during this incredibly difficult time.

A GoFundMe has been set up to help them with immediate needs as they begin the process of rebuilding and replacing essentials lost in the fire. The funds raised will go directly to Tony and Amanda to help them recover, find temporary housing, and replace what was lost. The Washburn community has always come together in times of need, and this is another opportunity to show how much we care.

Donations can also be made at People’s Community Bank in Washburn or Seligman. 

Any amount, big or small, will make a difference and be greatly appreciated. Please consider donating, sharing this fundraiser, and keeping the Bland family in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate the days ahead.

From Amanda:

I have been getting lots of calls and Tony has been as well. I made it out in time and the kids were not home. It is a total loss. Inspector thinks it was possible it started in the upstairs as it had the most immediate damage. We lost three of our pets and one made it out and was rushed to the emergency vet. While we are devastated we are humbled at the kindness everyone has shown us and our family. We are navigating this hour by hour and if anyone has any questions- my mom Tony’s mom and Tony Bland are happy to talk. Thank you❤️
