United Way Monmouth & Ocean Counties
United for Impact Restaurant Week
United for Impact Restaurant Week is a community-wide initiative that brings together local restaurants, diners, and supporters to make a difference throughout Monmouth and Ocean Counties.
Held annually during a designated week in July, Restaurant Week provides participating restaurants with the opportunity to support United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties while showcasing their businesses and engaging their customers in community impact.
By partnering with local restaurants, United Way creates simple and meaningful ways for patrons to give back while dining out, helping to advance programs and initiatives that strengthen education, financial stability, and health across our communities.
