Two St. Augustine restaurants are raising money to help feed refugees displaced by the invasion of Ukraine.
The Floridian Restaurant and The Lotus Noodle Bar are hosting a benefit event on March 8 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at The Floridian Restaurant, located at 72 Spanish St #3638, St. Augustine.
Tiki and tropical cocktails will be served as well as small plates.
The two businesses say 100% of the money raised will be donated to World Central Kitchen, a not-for-profit non-governmental organization devoted to providing meals in the wake of natural disasters.
The organizations say World Central Kitchen is currently on the front lines in Eastern Europe feeding refugees displaced by the invasion of Ukraine.
