At CORE, we are dedicated to providing essential financial assistance to families working in the restaurant industry in Ellsworth, KS, who are facing financial challenges due to illness or medical emergencies. Our mission is to support food and beverage service employees with children by covering critical expenses such as rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills, therapy, and childcare costs. We understand the unique struggles of our community and strive to alleviate some of the burden during difficult times. Grant recipients can reapply after a full year has passed since their last award, ensuring ongoing support for those navigating challenging circumstances. With a lifetime cap of $7,500, we aim to offer meaningful assistance that helps families stabilize and regain their footing when they need it most.
