Volunteer! It Does a Body Good!
On April 26, more than 100 restaurants, bars, coffeehouses and nightclubs in San Diego will donate 25-100% of the day’s sales to The Center’s HIV/AIDS services and prevention programs! Each year Dining Out for Life® San Diego is a major success thanks to our generous participating restaurants and the dedication of our restaurant Hosts and Ambassadors. Hosts welcome guests to their restaurant, answer questions about Dining Out for Life® San Diego, The Center and the fantastic opportunity drawing. Ambassadors promote their restaurant to everyone they know, with the goal of packing the place! Both are great ways to make an incredible impact! We need volunteers for our street, data, phone, social network, poster, materials and runner teams too…
