September 24 - An Evening in for Dining Out for Life® Hosted by Subaru

CAMDEN, N.J., September 24, 2020 /3BL Media/ - The COVID-19 pandemic has forced dramatic changes to all of our lives and brought devastating challenges to the restaurant community, as well as to the healthcare organizations who support people in need. The annual restaurant-based fundraiser, Dining Out For Life^® hosted by Subaru, sends crucially needed funds to HIV/AIDS organizations in cities across North America.

Subaru of America, Inc. continues to support Dining Out For Life, and invites you to join Chopped! host Ted Allen and guests on Instagram Live on Thursday, September 24 8:00-9:00 p.m. EDT, for a spicy, clean-food, cooking demonstration by New York-based, award-winning Chef Ric Orlando, as well as conversation with Designer /HIV Activist Mondo Guerra, and actor/author, Pam Grier.

To join the event, go to @Subaru_USA.

• The nearly 3,000 restaurants that participate in Dining Out For Life need support now more than ever. On September 24, dining out and take-out events will be happening in several cities: Oakland, California; Birmingham, Alabama; Chicago, Illinois; Louisville, Kentucky; Alaska; Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Seattle, Washington. Many more regions will hold in-person and virtual events in October and December.
• Visit your community’s page on diningoutforlife.com to find participating restaurants.
• Reach out to the HIV/AIDS Service Organization that produces Dining Out For Life in your community to see how you can help them help the people they serve during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Last year, with support from Subaru of America, Inc., more than $4.2 million dollars was raised from a single day of dining in 60 cities coast to coast, the most funds raised since the event began in 1991.

“A commitment to caring for the people in our communities is integral to our Subaru Love Promise, and our longstanding partnership with Dining Out for Life is a shining example of the importance of supporting causes that matter,” said Alan Bethke, Senior Vice President of Marketing, Subaru of America, Inc. “We are proud to help raise awareness and funds to fight against HIV/AIDS and benefit those who are impacted in our local communities.”

Funds raised through a city’s Dining Out For Life event stay in that region to provide HIV care, prevention, education, testing, counseling and other essential services to people living with or impacted by HIV/AIDS.
