Dine Out to Help Out on Sept. 9
We invite you to dine out on Wednesday, Sept. 9 as Lincoln’s food and beverage establishments rally together and donate a portion of the day’s sales to Food Bank of Lincoln. In return, those dollars turn into nutritious meals for neighbors facing hunger in Southeast Nebraska.
Check this page for an updated list of participants and support one (or more!) of your favorite local restaurants on Sept. 9.
