By coming together as a group of small businesses across the Twin Cities and sharing what we have, we can lift up small businesses, support families, and restore hope in communities left heartbroken.
Your donations will go directly to rebuilding and community support efforts being led by Urban Ventures - a nonprofit anchored on Lake Street for 27 years and a leader in providing critical services to businesses, families and youth in the community.
For every donation of $30 or more, you’ll get a Better Together Minneapolis t-shirt.
Theft, fire, smoke, and water damage. For over a decade, Camacho and Isa have owned adjoining small businesses on Lake Street. Both were destroyed by recent unrest. Yet, both are standing by each other as they seek a path to rebuild.
They are standing by each other. Now, it’s our turn to stand by them.
To all of our donors, thank you for your amazing generosity!
