Here’s how to donate to restaurant worker friends

by Robin Garr » Tue Mar 24, 2020 5:38 pm

If you’re not strapped by the falling market and would like to dig down even deeper, why not donate to either of these two fine organizations that are gearing up to assist out-of-work restaurant employees?

* APRON Inc. will award grants up to $500 each, paying by check directly to creditors of unpaid bills. Six months’ employment in an independent restaurant will be required. Be able to produce upon request bills to be paid.
To donate go to http://www.aproninc.org/donate
For more info and to apply for a grant, go to http://www.aproninc.org/application/

* * Donate to the LEE Initiative Restaurant Workers Relief Program. Your donation goes directly to feeding the workers of our independent restaurant industry that now find themselves out of work in your community.
You’ll find more info and a link to donate here: https://leeinitiative.org

If you know of other similar activities raising funds for restaurant workers, please post the details here, and we'll add them to this list.

Thank you Robin
We are working day and night to try to help as many folks as possible.
We have a Challenge grant at the moment- an anonymous donor will match dollar for dollar up to $20,000. We still have about $5,000 to go.
Of course every little bit helps in these frightening days.

Stay safe everyone!
