The Ramsey County Bar Foundation provided financial grants to 23 organizations this year that support the foundation’s mission of improving the quality and accessibility of justice, and supporting the legal profession. Funding for RCBF grants comes from donations from RCBA members and others in the legal community and from contributions at fundraising events including the RCBA's annual Bench & Bar Benefit and charity golf tournament.
