A raffle is held at Stanley's Famous Pit Bar-B-Q in Tyler to help PATH, an organization dedicated to ending East Texas poverty.

Raffle Raises Money To End East Texas Poverty

Stonewater Roofing was one of several East Texas businesses that banded together to help raise money for People Attempting To Help (PATH), an organization that is dedicated to ending area poverty.

Stanley’s Famous Pit Bar-B-Q hosted a raffle with the help of Stonewater Roofing, Roast Social Kitchen and many more Tyler businesses. They will also soon host a concert featuring several national musicians who are originally from the East Texas area.

PATH is a poverty alleviation agency that is locally funded and governed to specifically serve East Texas.

Stonewater Roofing owner Roland Browne jumped at the opportunity to help out with the raffle. “I’ve had experience with other organizations like them, and the fact that I know that I’m doing something to contribute back to society makes me feel good,” he said. “It makes me sleep good at night.”
