CKE Employee Disaster Relief Fund

Over the few past weeks, we’ve watched several stories unfold in the wake of Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma. Collectively, these two hurricanes have caused billions of dollars in damage to our infrastructure, driven unprecedented flood levels, caused a shortage of food and water, and displaced thousands of families.  

At CKE Restaurants, Inc, our priority is the health and safety of our people. We are committed to doing all that we can to help those in the Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s family affected by these disastrous storms. This Employee Disaster Relief Fund will help rebuild our communities – starting right here, at home.

In addition to the $100,000 already contributed by the Independent Hardee’s Franchisee Association, the Star Franchise Association and CKE Restaurants, Inc., the additional funding from this campaign will go directly to Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s employees who have been affected by the storms. Your contributions will help provide monetary support to those in need so they can begin to rebuild their homes and their communities. Specifically, these funds will be directed toward those in need of temporary shelter, home repair, food and water, clothing, medical care, transportation or lost pay reimbursement.

These times are when we need each other the most, and I thank you for your generous support of our teams. We are thinking and praying for the many people that have been impacted.
