“I have worked in hospitality for over ten years. As we all know, the industry has taken a big hit during the pandemic, but what I didn’t know was that my health would as well. After just getting back to work due to shut downs, I had tested positive for COVID-19. I was out of work with no pay, and a two-year old to provide for. I needed all the help I could get. I applied to the Louisiana Hospitality Foundation and they exceeded my expectations and helped my family. They are angels and I appreciated the help that was provided.”
