“What better way to address the growing issue of hunger in North Texas than by dining for a worthy cause during DFW Restaurant Week?” said Trisha Cunningham, President and CEO of the North Texas Food Bank. “Diners can enjoy excellent food at some of the finest restaurants, knowing that each meal purchased in the greater Dallas area helps the North Texas Food Bank provide three nutritious meals to neighbors in need for every dollar donated by the restaurant. Participating in DFW Restaurant Week is a wonderful way to make a lasting difference. We are deeply grateful to the participating restaurants and diners who support this cause each year, bringing us closer to a hunger-free, healthy North Texas.”
Created to celebrate the unique Dallas – Fort Worth community and its award-winning culinary scene, DFW Restaurant Week supports both local charities and restaurant businesses. Over the past 27 years, DFW Restaurant Week has helped to enliven the late-summer season for restauranteurs, while also raising more than $11 million for NTFB and Lena Pope. Last summer’s 27th Anniversary DFW Restaurant Week raised an impressive $545,128 in donations for the longtime charity partners.
“Lena Pope is grateful for the substantial impact of DFW Restaurant Week in enhancing our ability to serve over 4,000 children and families each year,” stated Ashley Elgin, CEO of Lena Pope. “Participating in DFW Restaurant Week goes beyond enjoying a delicious meal at a great price; it actively supports children and families across Tarrant County. Lena Pope’s counseling, education, and behavior intervention programs ensure that every member of our community can thrive.”
