Financial Assistance for Families Working in the Restaurant Industry

Based in Buffalo Grove, IL, CORE is dedicated to uplifting food and beverage service employees and their families who face financial strain due to illness or medical emergencies. Our mission is to provide vital financial assistance for essential expenses including rent or mortgage, utilities, medical bills, therapy, and childcare needs. We understand the unique challenges faced by those in the restaurant industry, especially when unexpected hardships arise. CORE offers a compassionate lifeline to help families regain stability, with up to $7,500 available over a lifetime, ensuring each grant recipient receives the support they need. Our commitment extends to reapplying for assistance, allowing former grant recipients to seek help after a waiting period of 12 months. With a focus on the well-being of families, we aim to alleviate some of the burdens that come with financial distress.
