Dining Out For Life is THIS Thursday!     

When you dine at a participating restaurant, food retailer, or cafe this Thursday, April 26, up to 30% of your purchase is donated to Lifelong AIDS Alliance and the fight against illness and hunger in our community.

A few reasons to participate include:   

• Be a part of something big. The funds raised support Lifelong’s work feeding the hungry, preventing new HIV infections, and helping people with HIV/AIDS access medicine, insurance, and housing.    
• Giving back was never this easy (and fun). What other fundraiser benefits from you enjoying dinner at your favorite restaurant with family and friends (and encourages you to order dessert)?    

• Enter a free raffle to win two round trip tickets on Alaska Airlines.

• When you make an additional donation of $25 or more you receive 20% on Tuesdays all year-round at a select group of restaurants.

Busy that night and can’t do dinner? Dining Out For Life is an all day event with plenty of alternative food retailer options available, like coffee and butcher shops.
