State memorials are lit purple in solidarity with the Buffalo community.
Tuesday marks one week since a gunman walked into the local Allina Health Clinic and opened fire on employees.
Within hours of ordering purple t-shirts, the color of the Buffalo community, Jolene and Jason Sorenson, the owners of J and J Athletics, realized the demand was quickly growing. Like everybody else, we were so affected by this but we didn t know what the community needed or wanted, Jolene said.
Their machines are working overtime printing Buffalo Strong t-shirts and face masks, with half the proceeds going to the Allina Health Clinic shooting victims.
