Restaurant Week: Three Square And Leading Restaurants For Hunger Relief

By: Danica Serena Stockton By: Danica Serena Stockton | June 22, 2022 | Food & Drink, Events,

Three Square Food Bank and certain participants extend Las Vegas Restaurant Week offerings to June 24. Three-course fixed menus for different meals throughout the day give diners the opportunity to give back to Three Square Food Bank as a portion of the proceeds are donated to Three Square to help purchase, package and give meals to relieve hunger. Each dish ordered from Las Vegas Restaurant Week menus at participating restaurants helps support Southern Nevada's only food bank towards hunger relief.
