Restaurants and hot spots around Washington are rolling out the red carpet for protesters joining the March for Our Lives in D.C. on Saturday, offering freebies to demonstrators.

Many of the giveaways tied to the anti-gun violence march, organized by survivors of the Parkland, Fla., school shooting, are geared toward students participating in the daylong event.

The March for Our Lives is set to feature a 12 p.m. rally on Pennsylvania Ave., blocks from the Capitol and White House. Sister protests are also being held nationwide.

The D.C. event will include Broadway stars Lin-Manuel Miranda and Ben Platt performing their anti-gun violence mashup "Found/Tonight," as well as speeches from the survivors of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Shooting, which left 17 students and faculty dead.

Among the celebrities participating in the march are Ariana Grande, Julianne Moore, George Clooney, Jimmy Fallon and Demi Lovato.

Dave Delaplaine, the general manager of the Adams Morgan restaurant Roofers Union DC, says his eatery is partnering with a local high school to provide 300 lunches to student activists planning to attend.

“We are excited to do it,” Delaplaine said. Included with the brown bagged lunch is a note praising the marchers as an “inspiration.”

“And please remember,” the message says, “just because the White House and a stale Congress are in this city, Washington, D.C., is a wonderful city and we will support you every way we can!”

Roofers Union is not the only one offering to fuel student protesters in the form of free food. Celebrity chef José Andrés tweeted earlier this month that one of his D.C.-based spots would also dole out dishes at the March 24 protest.

One of my restaurants Think Food Tank on Navy Memorial will be dedicated to provide free sandwiches, drinks etc for those students in need of a meal! Friday/Saturday. More info coming soon...@AMarch4OurLives https://t.co/yyoi9HQajW — José Andrés (@chefjoseandres) March 10, 2018
