Episode description
The Restaurants Reinvented community is committed to supporting our industry's children and employee by participating in CORES Summer of Giving campaign.
1 in 4 restaurant workers are not able to pay a medical bill over $400
When unexpected medical crises arise, restaurant workers have limited financial options and resources. That’s where CORE -- Children of Restaurant Employees -- comes in.
CORE helps restaurant employees with children by providing financial support, through grants, when they face a medical crisis, death, or natural disaster.
The average CORE grant is $2,400; and 50% of grants go to single working parents.
