In Richmond, KY, CORE is dedicated to providing essential financial assistance to families working in the restaurant industry who are facing financial challenges due to illness or medical emergencies. Our mission is to support food and beverage service employees with children by offering aid for critical expenses such as rent or mortgage payments, utilities, medical bills, therapy, travel costs for hospital visits, childcare needs, and even funeral expenses. Understanding the urgency of these situations, we ensure that assistance is accessible when families need it most. While former grant recipients can reapply for assistance after a 12-month interval, we believe in offering a safety net that empowers families to navigate crises. Although there is a lifetime cap of $7,500 for support, our goal remains steadfast: to alleviate the burdens on families within our industry during their times of need.
