NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — If you're still making plans for dinner tonight, there's a way you can check that off your to-do list and help out a worthy cause.
When this popped in my inbox, I knew I needed to let you know about it! Tonight is "United We Dine!"
There are more than a dozen restaurants that are a part of this effort today.
Just to name a few, Black Abbey Brewing and Salsarita in Nashville are participating up in Clarksville, you've got Gingham Cafe, Edward's and Common Ground Cafe all taking part.
If you go to one of them... they've agreed to donate 10 percent or more of their sales to the United Way which ultimately benefits more than a hundred local nonprofits.
You can see all the participating eateries here.
This is a beautiful story of chosen family, proving a father figure doesn't have to have biology in common to make a difference in a child's life. The story of De'Andre and Alex will remind you that our relationships help determine the course of our lives. And that being supportive of someone - through a meal, a shared experience or even swim lessons can make all the difference.
