While most of the nation has a few more months to wait before Dining Out For Life on Thursday, April 28th; our friends and allies in DC only have to wait a few more weeks. On Thursday, March 10th, over 150 restaurants throughout the Washington, DC metropolitan area will donate 25% to an astounding 110% of their proceeds to Food & Friends.
Along with nutrition counseling, Food & Friends prepares, packages and delivers meals and groceries to more than 2,800 people living with HIV/AIDS, cancer and other life-challenging illnesses throughout Washington, DC, 7 counties of Maryland and 7 counties and 6 independent cities in Virginia. Since 1988, Food & Friends has provided food and companionship to our clients, their loved ones and caregivers.
Simply by dining out, DC supporters can ensure that thousands of children and adults facing HIV/AIDS, cancer and other life-challenging illnesses, receive the daily, nutritious meals so vital to their care.
Some restaurants in the DC area are amazingly generous with their donations; like Freddie’s Beach Bar who donates 110% of your bill, or Annie’s Paramount Steakhouse, Posto, and Ristorante Tosca that all donate 100%. But, Dining Out For Life in DC is made possible by the many incredible restaurants, volunteers, and supporters who make it an incredible night to remember. For people living with HIV/AIDS, cancer and other life-challenging illnesses, the battle is far from over. Food & Friends just makes sure no one has to face it on an empty stomach.
So, gather your friends and colleague, choose a restaurant and enjoy!
