The daughter of former Gopher Football player Ron Johnson got together with a few friends in Chanhassen to make and sell them to help those affected by the destructive riots in Minneapolis.

So far, they've raised more than $70,000 and hope to sell more at pop-up shops.

Their next event is on June 18, from 1 to 6 p.m. at 12th Avenue North 55447, near Gleason Lake in Plymouth.

For more information, check out their Facebook page.

"Kamryn & Friends Bracelets for Unity and Justice" also has a GoFundMe page if you wish to donate.
