Many of our followers are aware of the fire that occurred early this morning, which completely destroyed a local Amish family’s barn. The barn was a total loss. There were also many animals inside the barn that perished in the fire.
We have been asked by several members of the community if we could do a Go-Fund-Me for this family. While we are happy to do this and we have done this in the past, we must first have the family’s “ok” to do it. This particular Amish family has requested that no fundraising be done by a computer (online). Therefore, a Go-Fund-Me account will not be set up.
The family is, however, aware that there are many good people out there who would like to help. They have requested that anyone wishing to send a card and/or donation please do so by mailing it directly to them.
They are also comfortable with us putting a donation box in our store where locals can drop off cards and/or donations. We will get a donation box set up tomorrow in the store.
For those of you wishing to mail a card and/or donation directly to the family, the address is:
David Yoder & Family
2776 23rd Street
Rice Lake Wi 54868
Please make all checks payable to David Yoder.
David and his family would like you to know they are very appreciative of everyone’s prayers, as well as the outpouring of community support🙏
