Du Nord Riot Recovery Fund

On the evening of May 25th, 2020, George Floyd was killed by Minneapolis Police. Thousands of people have come to the street to protest and make their voices heard. Following the beautiful peaceful protests, riots overtook the city and the Lake Street Corridor:a beacon for multiculturalism, black and brown entrepreneurship and the rise of family owned businesses. Much is lost.

We have received a tidal wave of love and support from across the nation and many have asked how they can help. Thanks to the support we have received and an impending insurance claim, we feel funds would be better directed to our sister businesses in distress. Therefore, Du Nord is establishing this fund to support black and brown companies affected by the riots. In the coming days we will add to the leadership team to bring in more business owners and community leaders.  We are dedicated to rebuilding Minneapolis in a way that ensures our cultural beacons are restored.
