Dine Out For Life This Thursday!

On Thursday, April 30, join in the fight against HIV/AIDS by enjoying a great meal with family or friends for Dining Out For Life, a delicious event held in 60 cities across North America and raises an estimated $4 Million annually. The fundraiser was dreamed up twenty-five years ago by a volunteer at ActionAIDS in Philadelphia and is magnificent in its simplicity: More than 3,000 restaurants participate by donating a generous portion of the day’s proceeds to fund HIV/AIDS care, prevention, education, testing, counseling and other essential services in their city.

Last year, Dining Out For Life licensed AIDS Service Organizations assisted over 350,000 clients, delivered over 1.8 million meals and provided housing for 8,097 clients. Fulfilling vital health services, 5,572 patients received health insurance, 5,491 received pharmacy assistance and 1,948 patients were given dental aid.

“2015 marks the ninth year that Subaru has hosted Dining Out For Life. We are proud to once again support this worthy event and to help regional organizations that provide crucial services to so many people affected by HIV/AIDS,” according to Alan Bethke, vice president of marketing, Subaru of America, Inc.

Volunteer celebrity spokespeople include designer Mondo Guerra, winner of Lifetime’s Project Runway All-Stars, Ted Allen, host of Food Network’s Chopped, actor Pam Grier (Foxy Brown, Jackie Brown) and chef Daisy Martinez from Food Network’s Viva Daisy!
