Due to the "Shelter in Place" policy, the Club has had to lay off the entire Kitchen staff; Eleuterio, Reggie, Sabbas, Noel, and Chef Tom. Support staff Ulysses and Ahn have also been let go.

While these gentlemen have filed for unemployment benefits, that system is backed up and while they will receive benefits hopefully sooner than later, those payments will not replace the income that they were receiving from their employment at the Club.

The purpose of this campaign is to raise money that will be granted to the employees as personal gifts to temporarily assist them in meeting their financial obligations.

I have set a goal of raising $10,000 that will be distributed to our laid-off staff, and would love to see us exceed that amount.

These gentlemen have taken very good care of us for many years, and I would like to make sure that we show that we want to reciprocate by providing financial assistance for them until they can come back to work.

Thanks for your contributions!

Ralph Widmar
Past President
