Fund the Mission ~

Best Point's signature event, "Rockin' at Riverfest," is gearing up for August 31, 2025 at the Anderson Pavilion from 5pm-11pm. Your generous contributions during our previous Fund the Mission drives have been pivotal to our success.

This year, we're aiming to inspire giving with advanced donations. Would you consider leading this movement by contributing ahead of time?

We've structured our donation levels to cater to various capabilities:



The Rockin' Bourbon Bottle Raffle is a can't-miss opportunity for bourbon lovers and anyone looking to make a lasting impact in the lives of local youth. As part of Best Point's Rockin' at Riverfest fundraiser, this exclusive 20/20 raffle will raffle off 20 rare and allocated bottles of bourbon to 20 individual winners-one winner per bottle. Each ticket is just $25, and with only 1,500 tickets available, your odds of taking home a legendary bottle are strong.

The drawing will take place during Rockin' at Riverfest on Sunday, August 31st, but you do not need to be present to win. All proceeds benefit Best Point Education & Behavioral Health, helping over 13,000 children and families annually through transformative mental health, education, autism, and early childhood programs across Greater Cincinnati. Ticket sales close at 8:00 PM EST on August 31st, so don't wait-secure your chance to sip something special while supporting a life-changing mission.
