    Mike and Ann DiGiuro, representing The Trent DiGiuro Foundation, received a proceeds check from Give 270 Board Chair Eric Clemens for $30,500 following the second raffle event hosted by BourbonRaffles.org.

    The DiGiuro’s started The Trent DiGiuro Foundation in honor of their son, Trent, who was tragically killed just three days shy of his 21st birthday. Trent was an accomplished student and athlete, playing as a walk-on offensive lineman at the University of Kentucky. Trent’s parents started the foundation to keep Trent’s memory alive and give back to their community through scholarships for 3 high schools in Oldham County and at the University of Kentucky.

    BOURBONRAFFLES.ORG is a new platform offering fundraising opportunities for the benefit of a broader group of non-profit organizations and worthwhile initiatives. By partnering with groups and organizations that have audiences interested in allocated and collectible whiskeys, Give 270 aims to expand its impact beyond its own region.
