At CORE in Petersburg, AK, we are dedicated to uplifting food and beverage service employees who are facing financial difficulties due to illness or medical emergencies. Our mission is to provide urgent financial assistance to families with children, ensuring they receive the support they need during challenging times. We cover a variety of essential expenses, including rent or mortgage payments, utility bills, medical supplies, therapy costs, and travel expenses related to hospital visits. Additionally, we assist with childcare needs, such as diapers and formula, to ease financial burdens. While former grant recipients can apply again after a full year since their last award for a new or ongoing medical condition, we set a lifetime limit of $7,500 per recipient to ensure assistance reaches as many families as possible. We believe in compassionately helping those in the restaurant industry navigate their toughest moments, ensuring they can focus on their health and their family.
