Restaurants Nationwide Close Temporarily As Staff Test Positive for COVID | Eater

"A nonprofit that provides financial assistance and resources to food-service workers is seeing a sharp surge in need in Atlanta, with average requests for aid in December far outpacing 2020 and the rest of 2021; women in the industry are about twice as likely to request help, and executive director Bryan Schroeder warns that there is effectively no safety net left (no new PPP-like support), underscoring the precarious economic situation facing cooks and front-of-house staff amid repeated pandemic closures." - Elazar Sontag

I live in Asheville and recently we as a town/community have experienced a lot of loss and trauma. Personally, I had a pretty intense fall and shattered my wrist, requiring surgery. For the unforeseeable future (even if the town had water) I was going to be unable to work. I don't have insurance (fall into a category of self employed folks that are minimally qualified for unemployment benefits) and wasn't prepared for the surgery financially or the loss of work. I reached out to the Giving Kitchen with very low expectations, only because the bureaucracy of everything else that I was trying to navigate was insanely difficult. Immediately Kim reached out to me and was kind and patient and generous with their time. Perhaps it was just coincidence but when I was approved for assistance I was having a very dark day. Receiving Kim's call with that great news was much needed for my mental health. Changed my attitude for the better. I appreciate everything that they were able to do for me and have much respect for their generosity.

They have been absolutely amazing and should have a 5 star rating. They have helped my daughter Kyra so much and honestly without their help she wouldn't be in a new apartment. So she thanks them so much and we both have a tremendous amount of respect for their organization and staff!!

This organization is here for service workers when they need them. I injured my knee at work and had to be off for a few months for rehab. They were able to help me out with rent and utilities and let me worry about getting better instead of the bills. I recommend you check out there site and the work they do. They are amazing.

I was in need of financial assistance and applied for every one of them. Giving Kitchen was quick to respond. They had clear cut instructions on all the paperwork to turn in. Communication was superb, emailed and called regularly to remind me to turn everything in. Within a week they saved me from being evicted. I really appreciate what you all have done for me.

It's absolutely crazy that more people don't know about this!!!! Saif helped me with my application and made the entire process painless and easy, all while being one of the kindest people I've ever spoken to. Thank you Giving Kitchen. You saved my family's life this year.

I reached out for help. I was told to send in a list of documents which I did. I was then told my landlord doesn’t own the home according to their documents. They asked for proof, the landlord sent me the title. My landlord apparently hasn’t paid this years taxes so they couldn’t prove he owned it. I then asked could I at-least get help with other bills, I’ve reached out twice since then and still no response. Absolutely no help and don’t recommend.

Giving Kitchen has been a lifesaver for individuals in need of assistance. In my case, action was taken very quickly, and Lisa demonstrated a high level of professionalism and knowledge in assessing the urgency of my situation. I was approved for rent and utility assistance in a remarkably short time. Its very hard to express my gratitude in words.
