ORA Restaurant Employee Relief Fund
ORA Restaurant Employee Relief Fund

The Ohio Restaurant Employee Relief Fund was established as a collaborative effort between the Ohio Restaurant Association and its Education Foundation to provide emergency funding for personnel in the foodservice industry. Ohio restaurants employ more than 585,000 of your friends, neighbors and family. We have all experienced exemplary hospitality, celebrated life’s biggest moments, enjoyed a relaxing meal as well as received a donation from a favorite restaurant.  Financial contributions from the general public, charitable foundations, and businesses are encouraged to the Ohio Restaurant Association Education Foundation to continue to provide financial relief to individuals and their families during times of emergencies and crisis. Support those who have supported us and the communities we call home.

DONATE  Support those who have supported us and the communities we call home.

APPLY  Financial relief is available for Ohio employees in the restaurant, foodservice and hospitality industry facing adversity.

 

The Relief Fund continues to partner with a variety of organizations to be able to provide financial assistance to help restaurant, foodservice and hospitality employees in their time of need. If interested in pursuing, please contact Patty Halper at phalper@ohiorestaurant.org.
