In this time of unprecedented crisis, a group of local service industry volunteers has established the El Paso Food and Beverage Workers Fund (EPFB Workers Fund) to provide a grant to Workforce Solutions Borderplex to support food and beverage workers in El Paso, Sunland Park and Santa Teresa, New Mexico who have been laid off or working significantly reduced hours due to a temporary closure as a result of the pandemic.
Awards will be made by Workforce Solutions Borderplex to selected recipients based on established criteria and available funds raised. The application information is located below.
