Bull City Rebuilds

This campaign is to help the families and businesses impacted by the explosion in downtown Durham today.

It is organized by a local fundraiser but will be distributed to businesses and families, either directly or through a local nonprofit organization. It will NOT go to the organizer of this campaign.

Details will be added as they unfold. I'll also include links to individual family campaigns here. 

You can email the organizer at [email redacted] if you have any questions or comments.


Durham businesses that have supported this campaign: 

Motorco
Global Breath Studio
Bull City Designs
Zen Fish Poke Bar 
The Carolina Theatre of Durham
Validic
Big Spoon Roasters

Community members and friends

How the funds will be used (be specific as possible):

- The money will be given directly to the individuals who were injured, and it will also be  used to:

- cover lost wages that won't be covered by insurance,
- help businesses rebuild,

If you intend to withdraw the money, how you plan to send the funds to the parties you're raising money for or use the money on their behalf

The money will be collected by Upstream Works Collaborative who will distribute a set amount to each of the injured individuals (amount TBD), then following the other list above as needed. The money will be brought directly to the individual or in extreme cases, will be brought to families through hospital social workers.
