Raise the Barr (RTB) presents it's 2nd Annual Perfect Pairing wine tasting fundraiser to celebrate the launch of the LA-Based RTB Emergency Grant for Single Parent Scholars in addition to other grants. Proceeds will benefit this new fund, as well as other Raise the Barr initiatives that assist single parent scholars.
RTB is committed to breaking the cycle of poverty for low-income single- parent families by providing single parents access to a post secondary education or certification. Their motto is "IT'S ABOUT MORE THAN TUITION."
