ABOUT CORE
CORE: Children of Restaurant Employees is a national nonprofit that helps food and beverage service employees with children bridge the financial gap through an unexpected medical crisis, injury, death, or natural disaster.
More than 1,500 families like Kyles’ have received support from CORE. Kyle has an auto immune disease that came out of remission after a decade which left him unable to work. CORE was able to assist with their mortgage payment as well as utilities and groceries. Kyle says, “CORE took a huge burden off our shoulders during an unprecedented time of health and financial stress, allowing us to focus on family and keeping my body trending in a healthy direction.”
CORE will have the opportunity to raise funds for more industry employees and their families through an auction during the kickoff night of the 2022 Restaurant Franchising & Innovation Summit. Attendees at this summit will include executives from leading restaurant brands who will share their success stories of the numerous ways they have innovated to grow their franchises.
Please consider a donation to our auction. Fill out the enclosed form and return to CORE by March 1, 2022.
Your support can lift the burden for more food and beverage families this year. We know this year the need for CORE will continue to grow. Medical crises, injuries and natural disasters can happen in the blink of an eye when many are unprepared.
