Thank you for joining us Tuesday, November 10th, to help FIGHT HUNGER in our area through the RSVVP program of Orange County. RSVVP stands for Restaurants Sharing 10 (V/5 and V/5) Percent. Each year, a Tuesday in November is designated as RSVVP day and local, participating restaurants donate 10% of their total sales on that day to the Interfaith Council for Social Services. The money raised helps to support their effort to fight hunger in Orange County. For more information about the good works of the Interfaith Council, check out their website at www.ifcweb.org. With your help, Elmo’s Diner-Carrboro donated $490.85 to the Interfaith Council. Thank you so much for your support!

Both Elmo’s Diner in Carrboro and Durham have fundraising programs on the First Tuesday of each month for their local school systems. If you eat at either restaurant on the First Tuesday of each month, you are helping local schools raise much needed funds. In Carrboro, the First Tuesday program helps support the Chapel Hill Carrboro Public School Foundation (www2.chccs.k12.nc.us/psf) as well as individual elementary school PTAs. The Public School Foundation is the fundraising organization for the entire Chapel Hill-Carrboro school system. Ten percent of the sales from the TOTAL day (6:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.) are donated to these organizations. Below is a list of the individual school PTAs that are also co-sponsoring the event. Please join us each First Tuesday to help out all the schools!
