To the Baton Rouge Community

Baton Rouge, LA– The Better Than Ezra Foundation is pleased to announce its first official Baton Rouge fundraiser at the L’Auberge Casino Hotel on August 16th, 2014. The band invites guests to play Rock-n-Roll Mini Golf to support after school arts and education programs in the Baton Rouge community.

Through various programs, the Better Than Ezra Foundation has been able to reach numerous children from families who experience economic insecurity.

It has long been a goal of the Foundation to achieve this expansion to Baton Rouge.
