Former Vice President Joe Biden announced on Monday that next Tuesday, he will be joined by his "friend and former boss" Barack Obama for a virtual grassroots fundraiser.

Donors are invited to "chip in any amount" in order to participate in the event. Attendees will also be able to submit questions for Obama and Biden. Obama endorsed Biden in April, and this will be his first fundraiser for the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.
