Tutta Bella and Julia’s in Issaquah are dishing up a health serving of literacy for dinner Sept. 24.
Thousands of restaurants across the state will participate in Dish Up Literacy, which benefits Page Ahead Children’s Literacy Program.
All the restaurants need is you. By dining at either location in Issaquah, the owners of Tutta Bella and Julia’s will put books in the hands of thousands of children by donating a portion of the profits from your dinner.
The 18-year-old event provides books for at-risk children, helps make time for parents to read with their children and promotes community involvement in literacy.
This year, the event is predicted to give 44,366 new books to 18,086 children in King County.
Julia’s is at 375 N.W. Gilman Blvd.; Tutta Bella is at 715 N.W. Gilman Blvd.
Go to Dish Up Literacy to find other participating restaurants to patronize Sept. 24.
