Night of a Thousand Dinners® is an initiative of Adopt-A-Minefield® (AAM), a program of the United Nations Association of the USA, in partnership with AAM Canada, AAM UK and AAM Sweden. It began as an opportunity for people all over the world to come together on a single night, enjoy a meal and help solve the global landmine crisis. N1KD has now evolved to include any kind of gathering – a cocktail party, barbeque, wine tasting, tea party, luncheon, clambake, etc. – between March 1 and April 4 every year.
