To help victims and their families in the aftermath of the shooting in Orlando, Florida’s hospitality industry will be hosting a statewide community event called Dine Out for Orlando United on Thursday, June 30, 2016.

Led by the Florida Restaurant and Lodging Association in partnership with VISIT FLORIDA, the fundraiser, Dine Out for Orlando United, will be a day for Florida restaurants, their employees, and guests to make a difference in the lives of those affected by the tragedy.

During Dine Out for Orlando United, proceeds will be donated to the OneOrlando Fund. This fund is a charity designed to provide a way to respond to the needs of the local community, now, and in the time to come.
