In Naugatuck, CT, CORE is dedicated to uplifting families within the restaurant industry who are facing financial challenges due to illness or medical emergencies. We provide crucial financial assistance to food and beverage service employees, helping them cover essential expenses such as rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills, childcare costs, and even urgent needs like diapers and formula. Understanding the unique struggles of our community, our program supports former grant recipients in reapplying for assistance after a 12-month period, ensuring that help is always within reach for those navigating chronic conditions or new hardships. Each recipient can receive up to $7,500 in a lifetime, reinforcing our commitment to empower restaurant workers and their families during difficult times.
