TikTok is donating $2 million apiece to the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation Restaurant Employee Relief Fund and the James Beard Foundation Food and Beverage Industry Relief Fund.
The NRAEF RERF supports U.S. restaurant workers who have been financially impacted by the Covid-19 crisis, and industry legend Guy Fieri led a nationwide fundraising drive for it via a Restaurant Relief America campaign.
