Summary
This organization provides multiple types of grants and scholarships to support individuals working in the hospitality industry across the United States. One of the grant programs offers $2,500 to hospitality workers (U.S. residents, age 21+ and with at least 18 months’ experience) who have been diagnosed with cancer — the award is intended to help cover unexpected expenses and lost income due to the illness. Others include emergency/disaster-relief grants typically ranging from $250-$1,000, aimed at hospitality workers impacted by natural disasters. There are also professional development scholarships that cover travel, lodging, training and coaching for bartenders or hospitality professionals, though the dollar amount varies and is more oriented toward covering costs of participation rather than a cash stipend.
Eligibility is largely focused on individuals (not nonprofits or businesses) who work or most recently worked in the hospitality sector (e.g., bartenders, servers, barbacks, front/back-of-house staff).
The programs are nationwide in the U.S., making them available to applicants from all states (provided they meet resident and industry criteria). The intent of the funds is varied: some support acute financial hardship (illness, disaster), others enable professional development/training, and still others drive systemic change in hospitality through educational scholarships and diversity-equity-inclusion efforts.
In short, if you are a U.S.-based hospitality worker facing financial hardship or seeking career advancement and you meet the specified eligibility (industry experience, age, etc.), these grants might be a strong fit.
This grant may be available to individuals and organizations in Wyoming that are actively involved in Employment, Labor & Training Workforce. To locate more funding opportunities in your field, visit The Grant Portal and search by interest area using the Search Grant tool.
