Leave a Tip
We may not be going out for a meal or a drink right now, but consider still leaving a 'tip' for a Huntsville service industry worker. This platform randomly selects a Huntsville-based waiter, hostess, bartender, or other hospitality professional and connects you to their Venmo or Cash App, allowing you to support them during this difficult time. Remember- every little bit helps.
Food Banks, School Lunch Services, and more
Many services are available to vulnerable populations like school-age children, the elderly, and others. If you find yourself in immediate need, dial the 2-1-1 helpline. Find a list of these valuable resources from our partners at Rocket City Mom.
