About the NC Hospitality Workers Relief Fund
In order to support the workers in the industry, the NC Restaurant & Lodging Association (NCRLA) Foundation has created the NC Hospitality Workers Relief Fund to administer relief for extraordinary hardship and adversity including but not limited to: lack of access to housing institutions or structures, major health conditions and cost of extraordinary health care, and general decline in the standard of living due to unemployment, underemployment, or other lack of economic opportunities.
Hospitality employers in Western North Carolina may nominate individuals for funds specifically designated for Hurricane Helene Relief. Nominations are also accepted from hospitality businesses statewide for general relief.
Nominations will be evaluated based on demonstrated financial need, employment in the industry, and individual circumstances. Nominations must be submitted by a current or former employer, and employment will be verified.
For any questions about the Workers Relief Fund, please email chamm@ncrla.org.
