DeKALB – Kishwaukee United Way will host its first-ever Dine United event on Monday, March 15, to help support businesses and residents in need.

Dine United is a day where local restaurants are coming together to help the DeKalb County community by donating a percentage of their profits to Kishwaukee United Way.

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, DeKalb County residents and businesses are facing more challenges than usual. The proceeds collected will benefit the 22 nonprofit agencies that partner with Kishwaukee United Way. These nonprofit agencies address human service needs which positively benefit the DeKalb community.

Restaurants participating in Dine United include: Tom & Jerry’s of Sycamore, Egg Haven, The Junction, The Huddle, Culver’s of DeKalb, Raising Cane’s, Panera Bread and Panda Express.

If you are unable to participate in the event by dining out but would like to contribute, text DINEKUW2 to 44-321 to donate.

For more information about the event or Kishwaukee United Way, call 815-756-7522.
