OBB Friends & Family,
The mother/daughter powerlifting duo is back for 2026!
Let’s come together and help lift Jianna and Amanda to the top as they head to the 2026 USA Powerlifting Nationals in Chicago, IL.
We’re calling on our amazing community to rally behind two of our own. Jianna and Amanda—the powerhouse mother/daughter duo of our beloved server, Jason—are chasing even bigger goals this year.
They’re not just athletes—they’re national gold medalists and American and national record holders. After a standout performance last year, they’re now setting their sights on rewriting the record books this summer.
Their drive, strength, and heart have captured attention far beyond the platform. But getting to the next level takes more than talent—it takes support.
Amanda is the glue that selflessly holds the Andrews family together. She manages the day-to-day of the family while training as a nationally ranked powerlifter and supporting Jianna to ensure they both perform at their best.
Jason works two jobs—including right here at Old Black Bear—while also caring for their family and managing additional medical expenses for other family members.
As a community, we have the opportunity to help make this dream a reality.
Every donation—big or small—goes directly toward training, travel, and competition costs. Whether you give through GoFundMe, Venmo, CashApp, or simply share their story, you’re part of the team helping them chase greatness.
