Located in Oxford, ME, CORE is dedicated to providing vital financial assistance for families working in the restaurant industry who are facing financial hardships due to illness or medical emergencies. Our program supports food and beverage service employees with children by covering essential expenses such as rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills, therapy costs, and necessary childcare, including supplies like diapers and formula. We understand the urgency of these situations, and we strive to ease the burden during difficult times. Former grant recipients can apply again 12 months from their previous award, and assistance is capped at $7,500 per recipient to ensure support for as many families as possible. CORE is here to help those who serve our communities thrive in their times of need.
