Located in Palisade, Colorado, Financial Assistance for Families Working in the Restaurant Industry (CORE) is dedicated to providing urgent financial support to food and beverage service employees facing financial distress due to illness or medical emergencies. We understand the unique challenges that families in the restaurant industry endure, and our mission is to alleviate the burden by offering assistance with essential expenses such as rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills, therapy, and childcare costs. Our program strives to ensure that families can focus on recovery and stability by covering necessary items like funeral expenses, travel for medical appointments, and essential child needs like diapers and formula. While former recipients can apply for support after a waiting period of 12 months, all assistance is capped at a lifetime limit of $7,500, reflecting our commitment to sustainable aid. CORE stands with restaurant industry families, helping them navigate tough times with care and practical support.
