Based in Kualapuu, HI, CORE is dedicated to providing urgent financial assistance to food and beverage service employees who are facing financial challenges due to illness or medical emergencies. Our mission is to alleviate some of the burdens associated with these hardships by offering support for essential expenses such as rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills and supplies, therapy, and childcare costs. Whether it's covering hospital-related travel and food or everyday child needs like diapers and formula, CORE is here to help those in our community who serve others. We understand that no one plans for emergencies, which is why we aim to provide timely assistance to those in need, ensuring that former grant recipients can reapply after a 12-month period for continued support. While we have a lifetime cap of $7,500 for aid, our priority remains clear: to support families in the restaurant industry during their most challenging times.
