See what one of the charities we support has to say!

Rick,

Thank you so much for your incredible generous donation!

Your donation helped to make a crucial difference in the life of a restaurant worker facing unanticipated hardship.

Because of supporters like you, we recently reached a record number of grants awarded in two weeks’ time: over $24,000 in the first two weeks of July was awarded to 13 recipients. Grantees include the family of a manager who was shot and killed outside of the restaurant after closing; a bartender who lost her mother unexpectedly and needed to travel on short notice; a server who developed cataracts in both eyes and needed surgery; a prep cook and a line cook (brothers working at the same restaurant) who lost their father and had funeral expenses; a cook with a severe cut to his hand that severed a tendon, required surgery and prevented him from working while recovering; a cook with severe pneumonia and a collapsed lung that required surgery and almost 2 months of missed work; a server who was hit by a train on his way to work and was in the ICU for an extended period of time; a bartender who ruptured his patellar tendon needing 2 surgeries and an extended recovery; and a restaurant owner in hospice following a 4-year battle with cancer.
