Ohio Restaurant Employee Relief Fund Application
Employees laid off due to the impact of COVID-19 are eligible to apply for relief if they can prove their previous employment. Applicants need to have worked in the restaurant, foodservice and hospitality industry for a minimum of 6 (six) months to be eligible for funding. The funding award will be distributed as a single disbursement. Relief efforts will be based on financial need, length of employment, associated expenses, and the current Relief funding available.
A SUBMITTED APPLICATION DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUNDING.
Due to the overwhelming number of applications, processing and notification of award could take up to several weeks. If approved for funding, you will be contacted to confirm your mailing or email address before funding is sent.
I certify that the information submitted in this application is true and correct to the best of my knowledge. I further understand that any false statements or documents may result in denial of grant funding.
