The NC Hospitality Workers Relief Fund is managed through the NCRLA Foundation, a 501(c)(3) that has provided over $1.5 million in financial assistance to NC restaurant and hotel employees. As WNC communities and families have been devastated by Hurricane Helene, 100% of funds donated will go directly to support NC hospitality workers impacted by the storm.For any questions about the Workers Relief Fund, or to donate to our scholarships or for general foundation support please email chamm@ncrla.org
