❤️ Thank You, Portland ❤️
Yesterday, our community came together for Dining Out for Life Portland in support of Cascade AIDS Project and programs serving people living with or impacted by HIV.
From morning coffee runs to dinners, happy hours, your favorite takeout and restaurant discoveries across the Portland metro, every meal made an impact.
A huge thank you to all participating restaurants, supporters, volunteers, and community members who helped make this year’s event possible.
🍽️ We’d love to hear about your experience:
• Where did you dine?
• What was your favorite meal or moment?
• Did you discover a new restaurant?
• Tag the restaurants you visited in the comments!
If you took photos throughout the day, feel free to share them in the comments or tag us in your posts. It’s been incredible seeing the community come together through food, conversation, and support.
Thank you for helping turn everyday dining into meaningful impact ❤️
