Financial Assistance for Families Working in the Restaurant Industry

Located in La Junta, CO, CORE is dedicated to empowering food and beverage service employees facing financial challenges due to illness or medical emergencies. Our mission revolves around providing essential financial assistance to families, ensuring they can navigate tough times without sacrificing their children's needs. We support those in the restaurant industry by covering critical expenses such as rent, utilities, medical bills, and even childcare costs, including essentials like diapers and formula. We understand the unique pressures that arise from working in this fast-paced environment, and we strive to offer a lifeline through our programs. Previous CORE grant recipients may apply for new assistance after 12 months, and we are committed to supporting families until they reach the lifetime assistance cap of $7,500. CORE stands as a compassionate resource for those striving to maintain stability and care for their loved ones in the midst of hardship.
