A charitable fund that makes need-based financial grants available to associates at managed Marriott International locations who are facing financial hardship caused by a natural disaster or certain other personal hardship events.
Take Care Relief Fund Inc directs emergency financial grants to Marriott associates at managed locations who are facing hardship from natural disasters or other personal crises. The fund’s recent grant history shows a concentrated flow of support to E4E Relief LLC in Charlotte, including a $2,142,580 grant in 2025, a $2,135,000 grant in 2024, and a $2,000,000 grant in 2023, all designated to support the TakeCare Relief Fund for Marriott employees. That pattern points to a workplace relief fund that is used to deliver short-term aid rather than broad program funding. The foundation also appears in the records through its sponsorship structure. A $687,600 grant in 2023 and a $250,000 grant in 2024 went to the Greater Washington Community Foundation to support the Marriott Disaster Relief Fund. Taken together, the recent grants show a fund built around employee hardship assistance, disaster response, and designated sponsorship for emergency relief at managed Marriott properties.
The fund’s core purpose is emergency assistance for Marriott associates. In 2025, it granted $2,142,580 to E4E Relief LLC in Charlotte to support the TakeCare Relief Fund for Marriott employees. Disaster-related hardship is a second clear emphasis. A 2023 grant of $687,600 to the Greater Washington Community Foundation supported the Marriott Disaster Relief Fund, linking the fund to crisis response for associates affected by natural disasters. The pattern also includes personal hardship support rather than only disaster aid. The program description states that grants are available to associates at managed Marriott locations who are facing financial hardship from certain personal hardship events.
Typical grant sizes are large: the p25 is $687,600, the median is $2,000,000, and the p75 is $2,135,000. That distribution reflects a small number of substantial awards rather than many small grants. The recent grant list also shows repeat support over multiple years, with E4E Relief LLC receiving grants in 2023, 2024, and 2025, and the Greater Washington Community Foundation appearing in 2023 and 2024. The fund accepts unsolicited requests.
