How Being A Rethink Certified Partner Works

Proud to be part of this mission.

The Rethink Certified program helped keep the doors of the restaurant open when everything went on lockdown March 15 2020. Government grants were taking forever and the PPP was too little too late. This program provided us with immediate funding to create meals for those who needed them most. CBO's all over NYC had lost staff who were cooking meals due to the fear of catching Covid -19 but Rethink acted quick and started this program contracting restaurants all over NYC to fill this void. We were able to keep all our employees working and cover our fixed costs like rent and utilities. We are forever grateful to the team at Rethink for preventing us from going out of business with this amazing program.
