Hilario chairs AIDS Project fundraiser

WJAR-TV NBC 10 news anchor and reporter Mario Hilario is serving as chairman for the AIDS Project Rhode Island’s Dining Out for Life fundraiser.
The event will be held on April 24 at participating restaurants across the state. Restaurants donate a portion of the day’s proceeds to AIDS Project RI.
