More About HARP
|
The HARP fund is managed through the Pennsylvania Restaurant & Lodging Association Educational Foundation. The PRLAEF is a 501(c)(3) that has been providing financial assistance to hospitality students for more than 15 years. Additional fund documentation is available upon request.
When we think back on our most memorable experiences in our lives--birthdays, first dates, anniversaries, graduations, weddings-- one must ask how many were celebrated at our favorite restaurants or hotels? Since the mandatory closing of dine-in service across the state, and the restriction of group gatherings, most hospitality businesses have had no choice but to make the difficult decision to let most, if not all, of their staff go. The hospitality industry in Pennsylvania, and across the nation, is currently facing its greatest challenge. With over 800,000 jobs at risk across the state, now is the time to provide whatever relief you can offer. Questions? Contact harp@prla.org. |
