CORE © launches Summer of Hope with a first look at the new branding

HEART© (Children of Restaurant Employees), a national nonprofit that provides financial assistance to food and beverage employees with children, is launching its Summer of hope countryside. The campaign is a month-long initiative, from July 12 to August 15, and encourages generosity nationwide. Reaching the target of $ 50,000 allows HEART to provide even more subsidies to food and beverage workers with children in times of personal crisis.
In coordination with the Summer of hope launch, HEART updated its website with a first look at its rebranding initiative, which includes the HEART Hope palette, a palette of bright colors symbolizing CORE hope to help families in the food and beverage industry. The new branding reflects who is central to the heart of the organization – food and beverage employees with children.
HEART knows that restaurants are the cornerstones of our communities, so the impact of Summer of hope goes far beyond a simple charitable donation. When families are rewarded HEART grants, funds can cover rent or mortgage, utilities, child care, prescriptions, medical supplies, etc. With more than half of beneficiaries being single parents – one HEART grant can ensure the stability of a family.
âWhen it comes to giving, every dollar counts. While $ 5 may seem like a small sum to many, collectively and as an industry community, we can make a real impact in the lives of restaurant workers with children who are facing an eligible circumstance, âsaid Sheila Bennett, Executive Director of HEART. “Summer of hope is an opportunity for people to serve the people who serve them every day and to use the power of generosity to make a positive difference. We are grateful to our longtime partner Jose Cuervo Tequila® and delighted to welcome new partner PepsiCo © to the CORE family of supporters of the Summer of hope countryside.”
Service week
HEART will celebrate the last week of the Summer of hope campaign with a Service week. Service Week is an opportunity for people across the country to come together to educate food and restaurant workers about the services available to support them. During the week of August 8-15, 2021, attendees are encouraged to choose a date to distribute HEART Posters on the back of the house featuring information about the nonprofit’s programs at five of their favorite local restaurants. These posters can be ordered via a link on COREgives.org, or pass CORE head office on August 9 for a quick bite and pick up the Back of the House posters before heading out into the community to distribute them! Participants can post an image on their social media with #COREGives for a chance to appear on CORE social media platforms.
âAwareness is just as essential as fundraising. We want food and beverage workers in our community to know that help is available to them when they need it, âBennett added. âWe are calling on the general public to bring flyers to their favorite restaurants across town, so food and beverage workers know how to turn to HEART in the face of a crisis.
HEART Provides year-round grants to families facing a health crisis or natural disaster in all 50 US states, with an average grant amount of $ 2,600. HEART is grateful to our main sponsor Jose Cuervo Tequila © for his continued support.
