The world has watched horrific events unfold in Minnesota over the last few weeks. We are outraged by the reprehensible actions of ICE in our city, in the Midwest, and around the entire country. Our neighbors to the North, specifically the operators of some of that town’s legendary restaurants and music venues, have come together with a simple message asking for support during this unprecedented time. To honor that wish, we are here to both amplify their message and ask for your help in supporting the immediate needs of the people in the Twin Cities.

If you donate to any of the worthy organizations listed on Stand With Minnesota (https://www.standwithminnesota.com/) and send us a DM with proof of your donation, you’ll be entered to win a $100 Union Pizzeria & Union Squared gift card.

Please donate before the end of the day this Friday if you’d like a chance to win and remember, any amount helps and together we can continue to make a difference.

While we will remain open to serve the community this Friday, we will be donating 20% of Friday’s sales to ICIRR (https://www.icirr.org/). Our employees know that they have our full support if they choose not to work.

Union & Union Squared stands with our neighbors in Illinois, Minnesota, and with all communities devastated by the actions of ICE in this country.
