Employee Assistance
CORE: CHILDREN OF RESTAURANT EMPLOYEES
CORE is dedicated to serving food and beverage service employees with children. We grant when the employee or their child is faced with a health diagnosis, surgery, injury, death or natural disaster. As the world faces the biggest pandemic in our lifetime, we want to continue to honor our mission by providing support to food and beverage service employees, with children, who have also been medically diagnosed or living in the same household with a family member diagnosed with COVID-19 and under medical directive to quarantine. CORE grants average $2500 and provide help with expenses such as: rent or mortgage, utilities, or medically related expenses.
Even if an employee meets the criteria and has been recently furloughed. Employees can apply on line, or a family can be referred: www.coregives.org
Reminder to Tell Congress to Support the Restaurant Blueprint for Recovery
No other industry has been hit harder by the coronavirus than restaurants. The impact of the restaurant industry cannot be understated—our sales exceed the agriculture, airline, railroad, ground transportation, and spectator sports industries combined. Yet, restaurants will be one of the slowest industries to bounce back from the effects of this pandemic.
Please take a few moments and contact your Representative and Senators—tell them that restaurants, employees, and consumers need Congress to act on the “Blueprint for Recovery,” so that your restaurant can survive the long road to recovery.
