SACRAMENTO, Calif. (August 15, 2023) – Downtown Sacramento Partnership will present the Food Literacy Center a check donation for $11,500 on Wednesday, August 23, at 2 p.m. As an element to the downtown restaurant promotion, Dine Downtown, restaurants collected $1 from every meal sold, which was set to be donated to the Food Literacy Center, a 501C3 whose mission is to inspire kids to eat their vegetables and teach children in low-income elementary schools cooking, nutrition, gardening, and active play to improve health, environment, and economy.

“Now more than ever is the time to support our community,” said Michael Ault, Executive Director of the Downtown Sacramento Partnership. “Sacramento is home to some of the best restaurants in the country, and we are proud to connect everyone from our city together to grow a brighter future.”

Launched in 2005, Dine Downtown provides support to local restaurants during a critically important (and usually slower) period for the industry. In its nearly two decade run to-date, Dine Downtown has generated more than $6 million in restaurant sales for Central City restaurants.
