It's a double win for you and Northwest Neighbors Village! Purchase one $100 ticket (or more) to NNV's Tickets for A Cause and you will be entered into a drawing to win one or more of our fabulous prizes valued from $100 - $3000.

The opportunity drawing is a part of NNV's virtual gala, scheduled for Tuesday, May 23rd at 7PM. Ticket buyers will also be invited to an in-person wine and cheese celebration to thank you for your support.  This event will be held at a member's home on Wednesday, June 21st from 5-7pm.

Volunteer services are critical to NNV’s ability to fulfill our mission. This year’s Tickets for a Cause fundraising goal of $10,000 helps support the vital services of our volunteer corps. NNV volunteers provided over 5,000 hours of service last year. Your ticket purchase ensures the vital coordination of our Village's volunteer services - services critical to meeting our member's basic needs and being engaged and connected to their community.

Purchase your tickets today, attend our event, support NNV’s volunteer services, and enjoy the chance to win fabulous prizes! Once you purchase your tickets, you will receive a link to the event and more information about the in-person event.

Prizes:

1. Almost Heaven – West Virginia • $ priceless
Embrace the serene beauty of Jefferson County, West Virginia in this gorgeous 4 bedroom, 4 bath home over a 3-day weekend (arranged at mutually convenient time with the owners.)

Developed as a private retreat for busy artists, "Art Docko" is sure not to disappoint! All three levels of this spacious home are surrounded by windows that fill the house with dappled sunlight as it pours through the tree tops just outside. The many quiet corners and meditative views make this a serene place to curl up with a book or write your own. Unwind around the fire pit with a glass of wine and panoramic views of the lake, or in the summertime take the kids for a swim from your private dock. If you want to explore, the Appalachian Trail is a couple miles away, historic Harpers Ferry is just a 20 min drive away, and Virginia wine country is just next door. Whether you want to stay in or see the area, this spacious home has something for every member of the family! WiFi is fast.


2. Opal Restaurant • $200
Enjoy the consummate meal prepared by award winning chef Colin McClimans at his newest restaurant on NNV’s neighborhood’s main “avenue”.

According to the famous MICHELIN Guide - In quiet Chevy Chase, on the border of Bethesda, this buzzy restaurant is well on its way to becoming a neighborhood essential. Far from flashy, the team isn’t out to redefine a cuisine or break any culinary boundaries. Ricotta dumplings, beef tartare, a properly cooked filet of trout – these are familiar flavors handled in a confident manner. There is the occasional surprise, like the excellent lamb-stuffed pita. And for dessert, there is no escaping the tiramisu ice cream, a triumphant finale that nobody will want to share. A reasonably priced set menu appeals to those not in the mood to make any decisions. Either way, the homey space fills up fast, and even the bar can be packed out with guests perfectly content to eat while standing.


3. Hillwood Gardens • $400
You and 7 friends will enjoy a docent led tour of the beautiful Hillwood Estate or Gardens – home of Marjorie Merriweather Post, followed by lunch in the garden tea room.

Plan your visit to Hillwood here!
