Help Us Tackle Poverty Two Generations a Time.

When a single parent gets what they need to finish their education or step into a stable career, something shifts—not just for them, but for their children and their community. Your gift makes that shift possible. Every dollar goes toward the emergency grants, housing support, coaching, and career readiness that keep families moving forward.

All donations are tax-deductible. RTB is proud that .86 cents of every dollar raised goes to programming supporting single-parent students and their families.

To make gifts of stock or cryptocurrency, or contribute through your Donor Advised Fund or IRA, contact us.
