As the Spokane Complex Fire rages on and Central Washington continues to fight the Little Giant Fire northwest of Leavenworth, BIAW members are offering prayers and support to fellow members, their friends and their families.

Spokane Home Builders Association and the Central Washington Home Builders Association are providing resources and assistance—and BIAW and NAHB are helping to support them.

We know everyone is eager to help and here are a few ways you can do that!

Spokane HBA offers local assistance

The Spokane Home Builders Association created a Wildfire Disaster Recovery site with:

  • Up-to-date information on the fires
  • Accurate information on rebuilding, finding a qualified contractor and avoiding scams and further loss
  • Resources for residents—many of whom have lost everything

Spokane Disaster Recovery Resources

SHBA is also collecting funds for Spokane Wildfire Disaster Recovery through its Frame Your Future Foundation, a 501(c)3 charitable organization as classified by the IRS Code. All contributions are eligible for charitable tax deductions. EIN: 91-1483985.
