Chase Sapphire Awards $1 Million in Grants to Local Restaurants As Part of the Sapphire Supports Restaurants Contest

 Twenty restaurants from across the United States have been selected to receive a $50,000 grant after a nationwide, community-driven contest

Chase Sapphire®, in collaboration with restaurant discovery platform The Infatuation, today announced the 20 small business restaurants that will be receiving a $50,000 grant as part of the “Sapphire Supports Restaurants Contest.”

On July 19, Chase Sapphire launched the initiative inviting people across the country to share personal stories of their favorite local eateries and nominate them for a chance to win part of the million dollars, to help provide local small business owners with economic relief following the hardships brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.

“When you hear what these restaurants and the people behind them mean to their neighbors and customers, you realize they are more than small businesses—they are part of the heartbeat of the community,” said Marleta Ross, General Manager of Chase Sapphire. “We are excited to help these restaurants on their journey to rebuilding and seeing their continued success.”

Nearly 2,500 nominations were submitted from diners across the country sharing what their favorite local restaurant means to them. Submissions were reviewed by a panel of culinary industry insiders who considered a variety of factors including the restaurant's impact on their local community, innovation or creativity during the pandemic and the nominator's passion for the restaurant.
