In Kaaawa, HI, CORE stands as a lifeline for families working in the restaurant industry facing financial challenges due to illness or medical emergencies. Our dedicated program offers crucial financial assistance to those in need, covering essential expenses such as rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills and supplies, therapy costs, hospital-related expenses, and child necessities including diapers and formula.
