All funds raised during the stream will be donated to the West Broadway Business and Area Coalition, We Love Lake Street, and We Love St. Paul, all groups aiming to help rebuild and refurbish local minority businesses in the Twin Cities area.
This inaugural event will be in Minneapolis, where the social justice movement hit a tipping point earlier this year. 300 Entertainment and Dash are developing plans to launch this project in other cities with relevant local DJs and charities. Each set is airing on tape delay to maintain safety and avoid any crowds during the COVID-19 pandemic, ensuring the safety of both those involved and fans.
