"A nonprofit doesn't change a city. But I do think the city changed when it created Giving Kitchen. I genuinely believe that when the city of Atlanta and the food industry in Atlanta came together to make the organization that is the Giving Kitchen today, that it changed us."

- Bryan Schroeder on the latest episode of Dinner Tonight Atlanta.
Listen here:

It's time for Atlanta to step up to the challenge. We are the city that created the Giving Kitchen and we are the city that can rise up and face this pandemic. We will stay home, we will be safe, we will support one another and we will give everything we can to keep each other healthy and safe. I'm....

The CARES Act provides some immediate relief to keep restaurants afloat temporarily but we'll need to continue fighting to survive this crisis.

The Independent Restaurant Coalition (IRC) was formed to save the local restaurants affected by COVID-19. IRC is founded on the simple belief that there is power to affect legislative change if we unite our voice.

This national movement is quickly growing and EVERYONE is welcome to join. Together, as small businesses across this country, we represent up to 4% of the nation's GDP.

For the 11 million people across the country employed by restaurants -- and the hundreds of millions of workers up and down the food supply and delivery chain who depend on restaurants -- these small businesses cannot fail.

The COVID-19 pandemic has shuttered restaurants and left millions of people without jobs. Local independent restaurants are small businesses and they need assistance now. Without help, the economy stands to lose up to 4% of the GDP – or $1 trillion.
