Dining Out For Life - April 29, 2010
The AIDS crisis is more than 25 years old but is still devastating world populations. In the
U.S. alone, it is estimated that one infive individuals are unaware of his/her HIV status, and people
over the age of 50 are the fastest growing group to contract the virus. There are effective solutions
to slowing this epidemic and simple ways to help those affected by HIV/AIDS.
Dining Out For LifeŽ sponsored by Subaru of America, Inc. is a simple, yet substantial
way to contribute to the cause while enjoying breakfast, lunch or dinner with friends or family.
Thursday, April 29th marks the one day fundraiser where nearly 3,000 restaurants in over fifty
cities across the U.S. and Canada participate by donating a generous percentage of proceeds from
the day's meals to a local AIDS service organization. Money raised in each city stays in that city!
Support for this event has grown to over 250,000 diners, thanks in large part to the efforts
of Dining Out For Life Spokesperson Ted Allen, host of Food Network's primetime competition
series Chopped. Allen will be joined by Pam Grier, actress, advocate and author of a soon to be
released memoir Foxy-My Life In Three Acts. Both will appear with Food Network's newest Iron
Chef, Jose Garces in a Public Service Announcement produced by Shooters, Inc. Additionally,
singer Felipe Rose best known as the Native American Indian of The World Famous Village
People, has volunteered to join the cause as Social Ambassador rallying supporters to Dine Out via
social media on April 29th.
Subaru is proud Host Sponsor of Dining Out For Life. Media Partners are: CBS Station
Group, DiningOut magazine, Open Table, Sirius/XM and Yelp.com. Numerous regional sponsors
