In the wake of the protests in Minnesota, Sigma Lambda Beta recommends our Brothers and community from around the world do what they can to help the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. The following organizations/funds have been recommended by local members. We aim to update this list with more organizations as they become available.

  1. George Floyd Go Fund Me – Official fundraiser setup by the family of George Floyd.

  2. Minnesota Freedom Fund – Grassroots organization that will use donations to bail out arrested protestors. [Update: As of 5/30 they are asking for donations to be sent to other organizations]

  3. Minnesota Betas – Brothers from our Alpha Beta chapter will be taking donations and purchasing supplies for the local community. You can send money with Venmo to @MinnesotaBetas

  4. Black Visions Collective – Black-led, Queer and Trans centering organization whose mission is to organize powerful, connected Black communities and dismantle systems of violence.

  5. Reclaim the Block – Reclaim the Block is a community coalition representing activists, organizers, faith, and community leaders.

  6. Support The Cities – Organizing food, clothing, and city cleanup volunteer events.

  7. MIGIZI – Native American youth community center whose building was damaged.

I appreciate the emphasis on supporting communities through practical action and local organizations. In difficult moments, coming together to provide resources, volunteer time, and mutual support can make a real difference. I also think it’s important to learn about each organization’s current needs before contributing. Even a simple activity like Basket Random can provide a brief mental break, but community support is where meaningful collective impact happens.
