We’ve disbursed over $86,419.52 to local hospitality professionals in need since March of 2020.
That’s 146 checks to individuals that helped just make ends meet.
H.E.R.O. Fund
Our relief efforts are focused on providing assistance to individuals experiencing a financial crisis. This fund provides a safety net for individuals experiencing hardship so our local industry workers can remain safe and housed.
Workers in our industry are notoriously under-insured and rarely have savings set back in case of emergency. With the continuous rise in cost of living, illness or unexpected emergencies can quickly result in utilities being cut off or risk of eviction. We may post about individuals from time to time to ask for donations for a specific effort. Otherwise, any funding will be set aside in a "rainy day fund" for our local hospitality professionals.
