Restaurant Care Grant Deadline

Since 2021, the Restaurants Care Resilience Fund has awarded grants to 788 independent restaurants throughout California. That’s 788 burger joints, taquerias, bakeries, and more at the heart of our communities. 

Many of these restaurants represent family legacies and life-long dreams. The average time in business is 9.7 years, with nearly 80 restaurants operating for more than two decades. Check out our 2021 and 2022 grantees!

In 2023, we will offer a spring granting cycle and a fall granting cycle. We anticipate helping an additional 366 restaurants. Grants are $5,000 and are powered by generous donations from SoCalGas, PG&E, and SDG&E. Apply between April 15 – May 7!

Restaurants Care was created in 2017 as a safety-net for food and beverage workers, and that hasn’t stopped! Year-round we help the servers, cooks, and dishwashers at the heart of restaurants.  To learn more about our fund for food and beverage workers click here.
