Aaron McCargo Jr. Says,
'It's Time to Dine Out!'
"I'm Aaron McCargo Jr., from Food Network's "Big Daddy's House" and the Great American Dine Out's official spokesperson. I want you to join me in dining out at every Great American Dine Out restaurant you can find, from September 19 to 25. The more we dine out that week, the more money we'll help raise for Share Our Strength. Thousands of restaurants of all kinds are offering great promotions, featuring special dishes, and donating part of their proceeds from that week to help support Share Our Strength's work to end childhood hunger in this country. There's a sampling of what some restaurants are doing at the right.
"I remember what it was like when I was a kid, and buddies would ask my mom if they could spend the night. That was code for them not having food at home, and they knew they'd get a meal at our house. I don't want any child to ever experience that again in this country. Please, get together with your friends, family, work-mates, people you go to school or church with and dine out often September 19-25 to make No Kid Hungry™ a reality. All the participating restaurants across the country are in the Find a Restaurant map search - you can even send e-vites from that page to make it a party!
From the bottom of Big Daddy's heart, 'thank you.'

Official Spokesperson, Share Our Strength's Great American Dine Out
P.S. Don't come looking for me September 19-25 - I'll be dining out!
