BE A RESTAURANT/BAR PARTNER BECAUSE:

It's good for business. This popular event will bring in business and new customers. Customers are more likely to order appetizers, drinks, and desserts when they know it's for a good cause! If you choose to include alcohol alongside food sales, we'll add a drink icon next to your name on the website and in event print materials to drive more customers.

We make it simple! We will provide you with all the tools you need to succeed at Dining Out For Life Jacksonville on Thursday, April 16, 2026, including:

• Promotional materials include posters, table tents, cocktail napkins, pens, social media graphics, and more.
• Optional training for waitstaff and managers to enhance their event participation.
• Opportunity to have a Dining Out For Life Jacksonville ambassador (volunteer) representing the Northeast Florida AIDS Network (NFAN) at your location during the event

It's excellent marketing! Through our media/print partnerships with Action News Jax, Folio Weekly, Metro Diner Placemats, and local media, your brand will gain significant exposure across Northeast Florida through print, social media, email newsletters, websites, and our restaurant/bar partners.

Supporting the community! You assist the NFAN Mary H. Lewis Food Pantry, which provides food assistance to the Northeast Florida HIV community in Duval, Clay, St. John's, and Nassau counties.

It's fun! The community is excited to support and enjoy great food and drinks. They will also remember you and come back throughout the year.

Let's partner to ensure no one goes hungry alone in Northeast Florida.
