Located in Cottondale, AL, CORE is dedicated to providing crucial financial assistance to families working in the restaurant industry who face unexpected challenges due to illness or medical emergencies. Our mission is to support food and beverage service employees with children by offering aid that covers essential expenses such as rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills, and childcare costs. Through our program, we strive to alleviate the financial burden of healthcare needs, ensuring that families can focus on recovery and well-being. Former recipients are welcomed to reapply for assistance after a 12-month interval, with a lifetime cap on support to foster equitable resource distribution. CORE stands as a compassionate partner in times of need, committed to uplifting those who serve our communities.
