On each Tuesday during the month of May, the CarolinaEast Foundation will be hosting “Dining Out Against Cancer” at various local restaurants in New Bern. During this community-wide fundraising event, a portion of the sales at participating restaurants will be donated to the CarolinaEast Foundation for the SECU Comprehensive Cancer Center patients and special programs designed to enhance cancer patients’ quality of life.
The “Dining Out Against Cancer” dates are May 3, May 10, May 17, May 24, and May 31.
“The past two years have been challenging for everyone, including the restaurant industry,” said Jared Brinkley, CarolinaEast Foundation Executive Director. “Dining Out Against Cancer is a great opportunity for our community to support our local restaurants and at the same time, support our cancer warriors.”
