What is Raise the Bar Ohio?
Raise the Bar Ohio is an opportunity for OSBF Fellows to come together and connect with their communities while raising awareness and support for a better justice system.
When will the event take place?
Raise the Bar Ohio kicks off November 1 and ends at close of business on November 30.
Why should I get involved?
Quite simply, there is strength in numbers. Creating a justice system not defined by color, age, disability, economic status, where we live, who we love or how we vote takes all of us. As a Fellow, we honor your commitment to upholding the values and vision of OSBF and with your help, we can broaden our reach and impact.
Why should I make a donation?
Your gift, in any amount, helps drive our mission. Every dollar OSBF grants to programs and organizations aligning with our work, brings us closer to a justice system that works for everyone and a public that is more informed in the rule of law. To date, OSBF has granted $14 million to dozens of grantees whose tireless work in their communities has been transformational. But our work must continue.
How will my donation be used?
Unless otherwise indicated, 100% of donations raised during the Raise the Bar event will be used for grant making purposes.
Is my donation tax deductible?
Yes, your gift is tax deductible.
Can my donation be applied to my Fellows pledge?
Yes.
