Barrio for Books in St. Paul, MN

The Minneapolis/St. Paul Chapter of Room to Read is organizing its second Beers for Books fundraiser (with more coming this summer) across the river from the 1st one--this time in St. Paul at Barrio Tequila Bar, which in addition to a great selection of beers has one of the world's best selections of premium tequilas!

For those of you new to Beers for Books, the concept is simple: For every drink you have, $1 will be donated to Room to Read and that buys a treasured book for children via Room to Read.

Room to Read is an amazing NPO whose mission is to provide quality educational opportunities to children in developing countries with the goal of empowering kids via literacy. Room to Read has projects in 9 countries in Asia and Africa including Nepal, Cambodia, Zambia, etc. For more details see www.roomtoread.org or in Japanese www.roomtoread.jp.
