In the heart of Newton, Iowa, CORE is dedicated to uplifting food and beverage service workers who are navigating financial challenges due to illness or medical emergencies. Our mission is to provide essential financial assistance, ensuring that families can find relief during difficult times. We offer support for a range of expenses, including rent or mortgage payments, utilities, funeral costs, and medical bills, alongside necessities for children such as diapers, formula, and childcare costs. We understand that life can bring unanticipated hurdles, and our goal is to alleviate some of that burden with compassionate, practical help. Former grant recipients may reapply after 12 months for new qualifying situations, with a lifetime cap of $7,500 to ensure equitable support for those in need. Together, we empower families within the restaurant industry to regain stability and hope.
