To combat the recent economic devastation of the service industry, a group of local hospitality supporters are coming together to feed Central Texas service industry workers who are unemployed or underemployed due to COVID-19–related business closures.

The initiative, called Hundred for Hospitality, aims to feed 100 hospitality workers per day through participating restaurants including P. Terry’s, Austin’s Pizza, Old Thousand, Burro Cheese Kitchen, Peached Tortilla, MezzeMe Turkish Kitchen, Easy Tiger, and Chilantro.

Additionally, people can donate to help provide meals for the hospitality industry here. All public proceeds raised by Hundred for Hospitality will go toward participating restaurant costs to cover food, supplies and staffing to provide the meals. The program is organized and operated by local media professionals A Taste of Koko and 365 Austin as well as PR agencies MYLK Collective and The Southern Influence.
