The relief fund will also help organizations that support the restaurant industry, according to the article.&nbsp;The Grub Street report noted that restaurant workers do not get the benefit of paid time off and that undocumented immigrants are in even worse shape from restaurant shutdowns.&nbsp;The RWCF has promised to update its homepage with news and support and also provided <a href="https://secure.restaurantworkerscf.org/np/clients/restaurantworkerscf/donation.jsp?campaign=2&amp%3BforwardedFromSecureDomain=1&amp%3Btest=true&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=restaurant-workers-community-foundation-forms-coronavirus-relief-fund-2712537" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">a link on its website</a> for those who want to contribute to the fund.&nbsp;“Up until now, RWCF has been relatively light on direct pleas for donations, and that was for a reason,” <a href="https://www.restaurantworkerscf.org/news/2020/3/15/restaurant-workers-community-foundation-announces-the-formation-of-restaurant-workers-covid19-crisis-relief-fund?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=restaurant-workers-community-foundation-forms-coronavirus-relief-fund-2712537" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">RWCF co-founder and board president John deBary said in a statement</a>. “We wanted to build a history of successful work before asking people to trust us with their charitable dollars. The coronavirus crisis has upended that strategy—we need to start working to help the most vulnerable among us NOW.”Read <a href="https://www.grubstreet.com/2020/03/restaurant-workers-org-starts-coronavirus-relief-fund.html?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=restaurant-workers-community-foundation-forms-coronavirus-relief-fund-2712537" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">the full report at Grub Street</a>.&nbsp;
