Located in Crown Point, IN, CORE is dedicated to providing vital financial assistance to families working in the restaurant industry who are facing financial challenges due to illness or medical emergencies. Our mission is to offer a safety net for food and beverage service employees and their children during times of need. We cover essential expenses including rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills, therapy, and childcare costs, ensuring that families have the support they require to navigate through difficult times. Additionally, we assist with funeral expenses and travel-related costs to medical appointments. Those who have previously received grants from CORE may apply again after a 12-month interval for either the same or new qualifying circumstances, with a lifetime cap of $7,500 on assistance. We understand the urgent needs of our community and are here to lighten the load for those we serve.
