Fiddlehead Workers' COVID19 Relief Fund

Donation protected
My coworkers at Fiddlehead have welcomed me with their entire hearts and I truly believe that we function as a family. This restaurant has become a safe space for everyone in our community to be themselves. Every day I see first hand how hard everyone works to make Fiddlehead what it is.  Sadly, that hard work has ended because of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting closures of restaurants and bars. 

Like many restaurant workers, we are living paycheck to paycheck. My fellow servers and bartenders often live day to day. That means we don't have a few hundred dollars laying around in case of an emergency like this. We are counting on the community that we have been proudly serving for nearly five years. If you are one of our beloved regulars, we need you now more than ever. 

Currently, many of our employees are filing for unemployment or various grants. However, the unemployment offices are being overwhelmed and we are worried about when we will receive benefits. If we can raise $3,000, each of our 15 staff members will receive $200. This will help us buy groceries and other necessities during this unprecedented pandemic. We appreciate anything you can give, and thank you so much for being a part of this family.
