Americans are unsure of where their next meal will come from (Source: Feeding America)
Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen donates wholesome, unused food weekly to local food banks through our Harvest Program.
We average 8,500 pounds of food per month, resulting in over 7,000 homemade meals for those who need it most.
Emergency Assistance Fund
    A prime example of our people-focused culture, Darden Dimes is completely funded by Team Members giving at least 10¢ per week to help build a safety net for their fellow coworkers.
This fund provides financial assistance to Team Members facing catastrophic and other emergency situations.
Many of our Team Members contribute more than a dime per week, helping to make a real difference in the lives of our Team Members when they need it most.
To date, Darden Dimes has provided more than $34.9 million in grant assistance to more than 83,000 Team Members.
