After two years of being in business, I am happy to announce that Manhattan Digest will be throwing its first ever fundraiser this coming Saturday night at Gym Sportsbar in Chelsea! Gym Sportsbar is a great location to hold an event like this as it has a great and lively atmosphere, friendly staff, variety of music and is spacious in size. The fundraiser will be held from 7-9 PM in their basement downstairs, and a portion of the proceeds will be going to cancer research and patient care which I am very proud of. This site has been a labor of love for such a long time and the fact that we are finally able to throw an event like this is truly spectacular so I am hoping that many of you are able to attend. If you aren’t able to attend, I am including special instructions below on how you can donate outside the event.
For the event itself, we have over 20 incredible & fantastic prizes for you to bid on! A $20 donation gets you 10 tickets, $40 gets you 25 and $60 gets you 50. Happy to accept more than that for donations as these prizes are items you truly want to win! For the gay men and ladies out there, we will also be having two hunks from Adonis Lounge there to help out with raising money and hopefully blood pressure so that is something to look out for as well! Also on hand will be a bunch of fantastic swag from Scruff App including T-Shirts and 1 month premium memberships that will be handed out throughout the night! Take a look at the amazing prizes you can bid on this Saturday night!
