WASHINGTON, Aug. 31, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- This September, thousands of restaurants around the country are partnering with No Kid Hungry to help end childhood hunger in the U.S., and it's as easy as 1, 2, 3. When customers dine out in participating restaurants, every $1 donated can connect a child struggling with hunger with 10 meals. That's a big deal in a country where 1 out of 5 kids can't count on their next meal. And for every donation customers make, participating restaurants like Arby's, Denny's, Joe's Crab Shack and many more are treating their customers to valuable deals and sweet rewards. From the simple ($1 donation = $2 coupon) to the sublime (donate to win an all-expenses-paid vacation), eating out never felt so good, and giving back never felt so easy.
