Hundreds of Minnesotans have come out to Sanford middle school in South Minneapolis to drop off food donations for those who have been affected by the rioting that took place Thursday and Friday night.
The tone in the city has shifted as the sun sets and rises, and today is no different than days prior. Many have commented on the shift in the atmosphere and our Susie Jones talked about the difference between last night and this morning.
“Last night was ominous and scary,” Susie Jones said, “today, there is this burst of generosity and love and support.”
Cars are lining up with donations of food, laundry detergent and other essential items that those living in affected areas may not be able to get right now. After the call went out for these items hundreds of bags now line the sidewalk and grass outside of Sandford.
"Hundreds of donations as I could see,” Community member Sam Moley told Brandon Ison with WCCO “our car was backed up and we were in our car for 20 minutes because of how many people were donating.”
