"University Rebuild" is a group of more than 100 people who handle sets, props, and lighting for theater, and are using their skill set to help out during the riots.

"A lot of people were looking for ways to support the community," said Daisuke Kawachi, a freelance director and former Guthrie Theater employee. "There was a high degree of technical knowledge lying fallow."

They have helped around 200 businesses.

You can process a request for help through the group's Facebook page.
