Help Florida's Hospitality Workers!

Due to Covid-19, normal restaurant service has been ordered by the state to discontinue as of 3/20.  This left the majority of service industry workers out of a job completely. And we are unable to work from home like many in this time.

 The majority of us have been laid off for 30+ days, which is tough when you rely on cash daily to pay bills and feed your family. We have not seen much outreach yet to these people in need. We would love to help, by raising money and sending it to anyone who needs it.

 

Our goal of $50,000 would allow us to send $250 to 200 people, although we would love to exceed that goal and reach as many people as possible. Anything helps, even $20 could help put food in someones fridge. Please help us in supporting this industry and saving our servers/bartenders/cooks!! 

 

IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR RELIEF FUNDS:  You must provide proof of unemployment. A paystub and letter from your employer stating your status of employment OR current unemployment documents will suffice.

The sole purpose of this relief fund is to provide help to the hospitality workers who have been laid off due to the Covid-19 Virus. All funds acquired will be distributed to those affected. 

 

Thanks for sharing!!
