Golden Diner and Welcome to Chinatown Raffle Fundraiser for BIPOC Communities
We are excited to partner with neighborhood friends Golden Diner to (re)introduce the community to just a few of the many amazing small businesses in our beloved neighborhood. Chinatown has been hard hit with devastating obstacles even before the COVID shutdown, but seeing the lights of small businesses slowly come back on over the past 2 weeks has given us hope and cause for celebration. This community is unassumingly but astonishingly brave, resourceful, and resilient. And where the hell else you gonna go to get $2 dumplings?
Inspired by East Village Postal’s raffle, Golden Diner and Welcome to Chinatown are teaming up to host a raffle, giving away many local favorites of the neighborhood with all proceeds going to great community-centric organizations serving the BIPOC community: Brooklyn Rescue Mission, Black Voters Matter Fund and The Brotherhood / Sister Sol.
Here’s how it works:
Each ticket for entry is $5, and you can purchase unlimited tickets.
Please send payment via venmo: @goodhood-fund and comment with your email/@instagram to get in touch.
The winner will be randomly selected and announced in a week and must pick up the package at Golden Diner (more pick up details to come).
