Located in Metairie, LA, CORE is dedicated to providing essential financial assistance to families working in the restaurant industry who are facing financial challenges due to medical emergencies or chronic illnesses. Our mission is to support food and beverage service employees by alleviating the stress caused by unexpected expenses, including rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills, and child-related costs such as diapers and childcare. We understand the unique struggles of those in the restaurant sector, and our grant program is designed to help ease these burdens during difficult times. While previous recipients can reapply after 12 months, we maintain a commitment to offering up to $7,500 in support over a lifetime, ensuring that assistance is both impactful and accessible whenever families need it most.
