Several East Cobb businesses that have closed temporarily due to the Coronavirus response have set up special fundraising drives to help their workers financially during the shutdown.
We’ve listed below what we know about and will be adding to this list; if you know of others please e-mail: editor@eastcobbnews.com with the information and we’ll update.
We’ll also be working up a list of restaurants that are still open that are adding curbside and takeout services. Most places we know of have shut dining room service or severely limited it.
Here are the restaurants that have launched GoFundMe appeals:
For now restaurants in unincorporated Cobb are allowed to operate without the limitations that have been imposed in Smyrna, Roswell, Sandy Springs, Alpharetta, Johns Creek and other nearby cities, along with the city of Atlanta.
Both Gov. Brian Kemp and Cobb Commission Chairman Mike Boyce have said they have no plans to shut down businesses or limit their operations beyond public health guidelines regarding social distancing.
