Restaurant Employee Relief Fund

As the restaurant industry continues to be impacted by the lasting effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Illinois Restaurant Association Educational Foundation (IRAEF) has developed the Restaurant Employee Relief Fund to provide financial support to restaurant workers in need and has expanded it to include those restaurant workers impacted by accident, illness, injury, death of an immediate family member or natural disaster.

It is our mission to build and promote the health and prosperity of the restaurant industry by investing in our workforce.
