The people behind The Acre, a new Ridgewood eatery opening soon, have coordinated with small business owners throughout the neighborhood to create a virtual raffle. Anyone can enter to win an array of freebies and gifts from local shops and restaurants. The important part: 100% of the proceeds received from this raffle will be donated to the Black Lives Matter movement.
The Ridgewood Raffle is sponsored by a variety of businesses including Topos Bookstore and Cafe, Dank Brooklyn, Burrito Republic, plus many more and they are still accepting sponsors! Business that wishes to take part in sponsoring this raffle can email [email protected] with a .jpg of their business logo and the item(s) they wish to donate. (Full list of current sponsors below).
