Sunday, November 13 - Free Sambusa, Chai, and Hugs in Loring Park

Via an e-newsletter from R.T. Rybak, President and CEO of The Minneapolis Foundation:

Free Sambusa, Chai, and Hugs

In the face of threats during and after the election, many of our Somali neighbors have shared they have been overwhelmed by an outpouring of support. To thank those who are standing with them in very uncertain times, the Coalition of Somali American Leaders, with the support of The Minneapolis Foundation, is hosting Sambusa Sunday this Sunday, November 13, from 4-5:30 p.m. in Loring Park. It's a neighborhood gathering where the Somali community is giving out, in their words, "free sambusa, chai and hugs." It's not a rally and no big speeches.

The Foundation encourages our friends and donors to join us in Loring Park on a sunny fall day, visit with your neighbors, and join us in the work we have always done, bringing together people, resources and ideas to build a stronger community. We will keep striving toward the ideal of OneMinneapolis – a place where every person has the opportunity to thrive, and where everyone is involved in the work of building a community we can all be proud of. Please join me and The Minneapolis Foundation in support of these values. #OneMpls
