…Taco John’s would be pledging a $40,000 donation (roughly $100 per store) to the nonprofit organization of Children of Restaurant Employees (CORE), which provides financial support to restaurant employees and their families when facing crises like serious illness, injury, or natural disaster.
Wait, what? They are supporting a charity to help people that are essentially their victims? If they paid their workers better such charities wouldn’t need to exist.
I know this isn’t the focus of the article, but I can’t believe what I’m reading! They are really donating to a charity for their own underpaid workers? Can someone clarify this for me if I’m wrong?
