The George Floyd Foundation (GFF) was founded by the family of George Floyd as a response to the brutal murder of George Floyd that occurred for 9 minutes and 29 seconds, by the hands of the Minnesota Police Department.
George’s ‘I can’t breathe’ plea for his life was a cry heard around the world. GFF is dedicated to ensuring that George’s plea never goes unanswered, that George‘s voice is never again silenced and that the community is served by achieving greater access to social justice education and advocacy, youth services and workforce development programs to assist with relieving the burden of inequality and injustice.
