Our signature event, Dining Out for Life, was founded in Philadelphia by ActionAIDS in 1991 and has expanded to over 60 cities in North America. This annual event has become our middle name and a “Must Do” event throughout the Delaware Valley.

On one special evening in April, participating restaurants donate 33% of each diner’s food bill to local AIDS service organizations, and our beloved volunteer Ambassadors raise additional contributions from individual patrons. Anyone that donates $25 or more is eligible for 20% Off Tuesdays for the rest of the year.

Dining Out For Life is always held on the last Thursday in April. Thank you to everyone that dined out, volunteered, and supported Dining Out for Life 2013! If you missed the event you can still donate online. Just put "Dining Out for Life" in the "in honor/memory of" block.

We hope to see you next year on Thursday, April 24, 2014.

If you are interested in having your restaurant participate in Dining Out for Life, please contact ActionAIDS ASAP.
