Triangle residents can help the needy
by eating at local restaurants Tuesday
during the second annual Restaurants
Sharing 10 Percent (RSVVP).
Through RSVVP, restaurants agree
to donate 10 percent of their profits
from a designated day to groups that
provide food and shelter to the needy,
said Mary Andrews, chairwoman of the
project.
"(We want) to tell everyone to go out
and eat breakfast, lunch, supper and

said.
This year, the Food Bank of North
Carolina, the InterFaith Council's food
pantry and Community Kitchen, the
Durham Community Shelter, and the
Urban Ministry Center of Raleigh will
receive the donations, Andrews said.
The Food Bank, which provides relief
across the state, will receive 5 percent
of the funds, and the other three orga
nizations will divide the remaining 5
percent, thus the name, Restaurants

altogether would be the only alternative,

everywhere. Allen believes removing
the statues is censorship.

Andrews said RSVVP, which is run
entirely by volunteers, raised $7,000
last year with only Chapel Hill restau

participating this year, and she hoped
RSVVP would become a tradition for
restaurants in the area.
