A GoFundMe page started by the sister of George Floyd has raised more than $10 million.
On May 25, 2020, my life shattered as I learned of the tragic passing of my dear brother, George, Floyds sibling, Philonise Floyd, wrote on the page, which was created five days ago.
My family and I watched in absolute horror as the now infamous and horrifying video began to spread quickly throughout social media. What we saw on that tape left us shell shocked; a white Minneapolis police officer kneeling directly on my brothers neck, obstructing his ability to breathe.
As some officers knelt on his neck, other officers participated and watched; no one took any action to save my brothers life. Those officers would continue to brutalize my brother until he died, she wrote.
This fund is established to cover funeral and burial expenses, mental and grief counseling, lodging and travel for all court proceedings, and to assist our family in the days to come as we continue to seek justice for George, the sister said. A portion of these funds will also go to the Estate of George Floyd for the benefit and care of his children and their educational fund.

Reparations
Where is the GoFundMe effort for the retired “black” former Minneapolis fire department fire fighter who had not long ago took his life savings to start a business for himself, a business the rioters destroyed as he pleaded with them to not burn his place down??
Will the George Floyd fund pay him “reparations”!!!!
From the very first moment this whole thing has been part of the Left’s 2020 election campaign, period, and George Floyd, the protesters, rioters and the sheeple supporting them are just foolish tools.
he has one...days ago it had gotten to 100k
Tom is dancing with George’s mother.
Can’t remember if that is the first Helen. Weren’t there 2?
Cha-ching.
So with all those millions, there’s no need to sue for damages. /mega, mega sarcasm
Heard yesterday that the family accepted Floyd Mayweather’s offer to cover all funeral expenses.
These folks are in for a big pay day. They haven’t even started suing the city yet that will be a real bonanza but they are becoming a member of the 1% with Go Fund Me alone.
I’m kind of hoping it hits $100m. That’s money that won’t be going to Democratic campaigns.
+1
Lawyers will have most of it when they all fight like crazy for it. Lol.
Gonna be fun watching the “family” members fighting over that wad of cash.
Which will be pissed away quickly.
A boxer is paying for the funeral. This is the best thing ever to happen to this family: tragedy or not.
I notice that the donations go to his estate in care of attorney, Ben Crump in Tallahassee. Bet he gets at least 1/3 of the money raised.
Thanks.
