Dine out on Nov. 11 to help feed the hungry
posted November 10th, 2008On Tuesday, Nov.11, Triangle residents will have the opportunity to help feed the hungry in their 
communities when they patronize any local restaurant participating in the 20th annual RSVVP (Restaurants Sharing V/5 + V/5 Percent) Day.
This year, hundreds of restaurants throughout Chapel Hill/Carrboro, Durham and Raleigh are being encouraged to participate in this RSVVP event to aid shelters and community kitchens throughout the Triangle area. Funds are raised through the donations of participating restaurants that pledge 10 percent of their gross receipts on RSVVP Day for breakfast, lunch, dinner or take-out meals.
The RSVVP Program began in 1989 with participation by restaurants in Chapel Hill and Carrboro. A year later, when Raleigh and Durham joined the program, it became an annual Triangle-wide event.
