To Heal & Restore Korean Businesses

What a fantastic fundraising campaign it was! Thanks to your outpouring of support we reached our goal and are closing our drive. Your donation will be distributed to the Korean business people whose stores severely damaged and/or completely destroyed amidst the rioting.

I'd like to express my deepest appreciation for your loving and enthusiastic contribution to our cause.

Last week Minnesota experienced one of the most violent moments in our history. George Floyd’s death instigated the protest and progressed to an extremely violent rioting. 

During that turmoil, many Korean stores were burned to the ground and severely looted.  Many years of toil and labor to establish their business went down the drain and all their effort was wasted. Their pain and suffering are indescribable.  We feel their pain in our hearts and we want them to know we are behind them. 

Please join us in our effort to encourage and help them in restoring their business. Every dollar counts. Thank you for your donation.
