Omnivore - Attention, servers without benefits

Boston company forming to provide servers health insurance and other benefits

Although this group, Serving Benefits, is headquartered in Boston, it looks like a terrific resource for servers everywhere. Apparently, it is not in full operation yet, but check out their Facebook page, which includes this description:

Serving Benefits was founded in 2012 as a professional group providing benefits and solutions for employees of the hospitality industry. We provide access to the benefits that a more traditional career normally has to employees of restaurants. We are currently working out health care solutions, disability insurance, IRAs and investment plans, small business incubation and assistance. We are staffed by people who currently work in the industry and understand the wants and needs of servers and bartenders. Our official roll-out is slated for February 2013. We are established by restaurant employees for restaurant employees.

The dates are confusing; I’ve tried in vain to verify them.
