Outback’s Commitment

Supporting our troops and their families has been our longstanding commitment at Outback Steakhouse. What began as a grassroots initiative in Tampa, Florida, when Outback Steakhouse was founded 23 years ago, has since grown into an international effort. In 2002, Outback launched “Operation Feeding Freedom,” sending a team of volunteer employees to Afghanistan to feed American troops. Since then, Outback has made a total of 9 trips to the Middle East and brought over 200,000 troops a much needed taste of home. For the last two years, Outback invited its guests to order off its special “Red, White & Bloomin’” Menu and donated $2 Million to Operation Homefront, a non-profit organization providing everyday and emergency support for active troops, wounded warriors and their families. For everyone at Outback, it is an honor serving those who serve us so selflessly every day. For more information about Outback’s commitment, please visit www.outback.com/troops.
