"Just put it on my tab..."
When you have more than you need,
build a longer table not a higher wall.
Put It On Pete's Tab exists to take
care of the people that take care of us,
the essential but often forgotten
workers in the hospitality industry.
With the help of our amazing community of donors we are able to minimize the financial burden of those within the hospitality industry. We're granting requests to assist with utilities, food, household needs and anything else that presents itself as a barrier to those workers' ability to survive, grow and thrive.
The hospitality industry is what keeps many of our communities surviving and thriving; those involved in this industry spend their days making their patrons feel special and taken care of and we believe we can do more to take care of them.
One in six restaurant workers lives below the poverty line, and less than 25% have access to employer sponsored insurance. “Affordable” health insurance plans have deductibles over $2000 with monthly premiums averaging $450. Couple those figures with an average hourly wage of $12.91 (tips included), lack of paid sick days and no retirement fund, you can see why the workers within the restaurant industry are often one crisis away from financial devastation.
We are here to help

Building longer tables
Through generous donations we are able to provide financial assistance to those in the restaurant industry that need a little help. We know that most workers in the hospitality industry are one paycheck away from financial devastation and that a bad night at work can be the difference between paying rent or not.
