Employee Relief Fund

Serving Those
Who Serve Us

The New Hampshire Hospitality Employee Relief Fund is a nonprofit fund that provides one-time grants to hospitality employees experiencing a crisis like an illness or natural disaster. These grants cover housing, living, and medical expenses.

Eligibility:

If you are in need of assistance, please review the eligibility requirements below and then complete the application form. All grant requests will be reviewed on their merits by a committee composed of the New Hampshire Lodging & Restaurant Association Education Foundation and NHLRA board members on an as-needed basis.

Eligible applicants must:

Reside and work in the state of New Hampshire.
Have an annual taxable income of $60,000 or less.
Have or held a position in the beverage, food service, or hospitality industry within the last 60 days.
Can provide proof of employment within the last 60 days (pay stubs).

Our goal is to help every employee, but our funding sources are limited. Please note that applications are not guarantees of funding. Funding continues to be on a first-come, first-serve basis to those who complete the application, its requirements, and meet all of the eligibility criteria. Due to an increase in dishonest applications, we will be reaching out to your employer to verify your employment status before any relief funds are disbursed.
