50% of proceeds raised will benefit Good Work Austin, and their efforts to create a supportive environment for employers who want to do the right thing for their workers, the economy, and the environment. GWA established their “Dine With Confidence" agreement to keep staff and guests safe, and provide small businesses with access to low-cost health care and counseling options for their staff and a community of business owners to share resources and support. GWA has been instrumental in supporting those in need in Austin, as well as generating income for restaurants during the pandemic, and then even more after the ice storm, and are excited to be able to do something to raise awareness of the industry and give back.
