FOR EMPLOYEES

 

 

  • WAF HELPS
    • Restaurant and bar slowdowns during the Coronavirus / COVID-19 crisis have put many restaurant workers in a difficult place. The members of the Woodlands Area Foodies want to help.
    • We are taking donations to distribute to restaurant and bar workers who are in need during this difficult time. You do so much for us; now it’s our turn to do something for you.
    • We know the need is great. Unfortunately, we won’t be able to help everyone, but with the generous donations of WAF members, we’ll help as many as we can.
