We’re holding all food & beverage workers close this holiday season. As our teams take a short, well-deserved pause, here are a few important reminders:

Emergency Relief Fund: Applications will be paused from December 17, 2025, to January 4, 2026. Please apply before the application closes on December 16 at 5 PM CT. If you have an ongoing case, you can continue working with your case manager. Please reach out to them with any concerns about closures and deadlines.

Behind You Mental Health Program: Applications remain open, and services will be available in January. The earlier you apply, the quicker we can determine eligibility, and you can be ready for when services commence.

Texas Hill Country Floods: Applications close 12/16.

Maggie Belle

Maggie Belle emerged on the music scene in 2013 in New Orleans, gaining inspiration from Rhythm & Blues, Soul, and Pop, creating a unique sound all her own. Maggie has made appearances at New Orleans’ very own Jazz & Heritage Festival and Bayou Boogaloo, Texas’ River Revival Festival, as well as San Jose’s Summer Jazz Festival.

Amidst her performance success, Maggie works as a full time registered nurse in the ICU and Brian as an accomplished Media Arts school teacher.

“Hold Me” Maggie’s newest single off her forthcoming album produced by Eric Heigle (Arcade Fire, Colin Lake, Dumpstaphunk) to be released later this year, wraps soulful lyrics with modern jazz and blues influences, perfect for cooling off in the heat of the summer.
