COVID-19 has hit hospitality workers especially hard. Restaurant, bar, and hotel workers have lost jobs, lost wages, and been forced to make impossible decisions about how to support their families.
In honor of ‘Giving Tuesday Now’ we’re raising funds for the Unite Here Education and Support Fund, which will provide immediate relief to hospitality workers in Boston and beyond who have been impacted by this crisis. Your contribution will help pay for:
- Health insurance, so families can continue to receive health care if they have been laid off;
- Food, rent, and utilities so folks can remain in their homes and put food on the table;
- Wages that have been lost due to reduced hours and lost tips; and,
- Retraining for new jobs during the economic downturn.
This Giving Tuesday, will you contribute $3 to the Unite Here Education and Support Fund to provide direct relief to hospitality workers in this time of crisis?

Many workers were already living paycheck-to-paycheck; now, they find themselves in dire straits during this crisis.
Through your support today, you can help ensure that a family has the resources to pay their rent, purchase groceries, and meet other basic needs. In times like this, our mutual support of one another will help us grow and heal as a movement and as a community.
If you can afford to, please make a donation to the Unite Here Education and Support Fund to help our hospitality workers get through the COVID-19 crisis.

Thank you for everything that you’re doing to support our community.
