Be Original. Do Good. Those are our core tenets, and it is a part of everything we do. With that, we’re expanding the Holiday Nerd Market Charity Drive Raffles! this year we’re collecting toys for special needs and foster families, as well as food for the hungry.

Donate a toy or food, get a raffle ticket (or you can buy one this year), and make the holidays brighter for a child…and maybe win some cool prizes from local small businesses, event vendors, or from GAAM ourselves.

Toys will be donated to one of a few organizations.

• Fostering Connections
• Nathaniel’s Hope
• Revitalize Arlington
• IHope
• Mamis Zules
  

Food will be donated to Feeding Northeast Florida
