Located in Hartly, DE, CORE is dedicated to providing essential financial assistance to families working in the restaurant industry who are facing financial struggles due to illness or medical emergencies. Our mission focuses on alleviating the burdens of critical expenses such as rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills, therapy, and childcare costs for those with children. CORE is committed to ensuring that food and beverage professionals receive the support they need during challenging times, offering grants that help cover costs related to travel, food, and other necessary child needs like diapers and formula. We believe in empowering families through our program while recognizing that former grant recipients can reapply after a 12-month period for new qualifying situations, as long as they have not exceeded the $7,500 lifetime cap on assistance. At CORE, we strive to be a reliable source of compassion and support for those who dedicate their lives to serving others in the restaurant community.
