AUSTIN, Texas — Austinites can create positive change by simply enjoying a meal at a local restaurant when Dining Out For Life returns to Austin on Tuesday, April 25.

The annual event celebrates its 25th year with more than 60 local restaurants generously donating a percentage of the day’s proceeds to AIDS Services of Austin.

In 2016, the event successfully raised more than $40,000.

Dining Out For Life proceeds remain in Austin to fund essential services including prevention, education, testing and counseling.

Diners are encouraged to show their support for ASA and Dining Out For Life by sharing their experience on social media with the hashtag #DineOutATX.
