Fleet Star Truck and Trailer is offering an incredible opportunity: the chance to win 9.15 acres of prime commercial land in Ham Lake, Minnesota, through a charitable giveaway hosted on BetterWorld.org, with entries accepted through February 28, 2026.
The company’s owner, Akil Ibrahim, originally purchased the property for a truck terminal expansion. But after reflecting on how to make the biggest impact in the community, he decided to do something different.
“We believe change is in our hands,” Ibrahim said. “Instead of just developing this property ourselves, we wanted to give someone else the opportunity to build their dream—whether that’s a business, a community space, or something we haven’t even imagined yet.”
What You Could Win
The 9.15-acre parcel sits along Ham Lake’s Highway 65 corridor, positioned 25 minutes north of the Twin Cities metropolitan area. The land carries zoning designations that permit warehousing, retail operations, office facilities, and mixed-use development, giving the winner multiple paths for commercial use.
Anoka County has committed to major infrastructure improvements in the region, including a $52 million Highway 65 reconstruction project scheduled for 2028. Additional reconstruction projects through 2028 include work targeting Lexington Avenue, Bunker Lake Boulevard, and Constance Boulevard.
Ham Lake encompasses 36 square miles and has a population exceeding 16,000 residents, with a commercial landscape that has attracted attention from developers and business owners seeking direct highway access and proximity to the metro area.
Fleet Star has a track record in Ham Lake, having purchased comparable commercial property in 2021, acquiring a site on 159th Avenue for its transportation operations.

Winner Announcement: March 2, 2026, at 12:00 PM CST
Who Can Enter
The sweepstakes is open to U.S. residents aged 18 and older. Complete rules, eligibility requirements, and entry guidelines are available on the campaign website.
Why Fleet Star Is Doing This
Fleet Star isn’t just a trucking company—it’s a Minnesota business committed to lifting up its community. Rather than pursuing a traditional commercial sale, Ibrahim and his team saw an opportunity to create something meaningful.
“Fleet Star is dedicated to making a positive impact in the communities we serve,” Ibrahim explained. “We believe in economic empowerment and supporting entrepreneurship. This sweepstakes is one way we can turn that belief into action.”
Important Details
The sweepstakes operates under a contingency structure tied to fundraising benchmarks. Fleet Star has set a minimum fundraising goal that must be reached by the entry deadline for the land transfer to proceed as planned. If the fundraising target is not met by February 28, 2026, the entry period will be extended. If the extended campaign still falls short, the structure converts to a 50/50 raffle, where half of the collected funds go to the winner and half to the campaign organizer, as described in the official rules.
The BetterWorld organization will conduct the winner selection through a random number generator system, with each entry assigned a unique number. The company will draw one number from the total entry pool to determine the recipient.
Winners will be notified using the contact information provided during entry. Fleet Star will coordinate property transfer procedures with the selected winner following the March 2 announcement. Participants are advised to review the complete rules and regulations posted on the campaign website before submitting entries.
