Letter from the Executive Director of GiveMN re: Cedar Riverside Fire Emergency Fund

Via a November 27 email from GiveMN.org: . Dear friends, . I don't often write to you about a specific need in our community, but as many of us are preparing to gather with family and friends for the Thanksgiving holiday, more than 100 of our fellow Minnesotans have suffered an incredible tragedy. Wednesday morning's fire at the Riverside Tower in the Cedar Riverside community of Minneapolis claimed the lives of multiple people and injured many others. . In addition to the first responders who worked to extinguish the fire and ensure the safety of residents and neighbors, the staff of People's Center Clinic and their partner organizations are working to provide for the needs of victims who are displaced from their homes, in need of food and clothing and medical care, and will need additional support in the weeks to come. They have established a specific fund to support those impacted by the Riverside Tower fire. . Please consider making a donation to the Riverside Tower Fire Emergency Fund. Your gift, together with mine and those of our neighbors, will provide crucial support to those whose lives were forever changed by this tragedy. . In gratitude,

Jake Blumberg Executive Director, GiveMN
