Restaurants in Port Angeles, Sequim and Forks will give part of their proceeds to the United Way of Clallam County today.
On the United Way’s 20th annual Restaurant Day, volunteers also will call on businesses in Port Angeles and Sequim to request donations during the Business Blitz.
Last year, 80 businesses and restaurants across the county contributed more than $13,000.
United Way’s goal is to raise $1.1 million this fall, and it has raised $90,000 so far, said Jody Moss, United Way executive director.
Funds will be distributed in 2010 to 27 partner agencies and other nonprofit organizations as requested by donors, as well as to United Way community projects.
