Located in Woodstock, IL, CORE is dedicated to providing essential financial assistance to food and beverage service employees with children who are facing financial challenges due to illness or medical emergencies. We understand the unique struggles of this workforce and offer support for necessary expenses such as rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills, and childcare costs, including supplies for babies. Our program also covers funeral expenses, therapy, and costs associated with hospital travel or meals. With a limit of $7,500 in assistance per recipient, individuals can reapply for aid after 12 months, whether for a continuing health issue or a new qualifying situation. CORE is here to alleviate the stress that comes with financial hardship, so families can focus on what matters most during difficult times.
