Bar owner helps unemployed servers by offering interest-free loans

This is one of my favorite stories and it just shows that when times are hard, the good in people shines through.

A bar owner in Kansas City, Missouri, is offering his employees financial support. The owner of Johnny Kaw’s Yard Bar, Brett Allred, estimates he had about $40,000 worth of alcohol stocked up ahead of the St. Patrick’s Day holiday. However, before any of it could be opened, bars and taverns in Kansas City were ordered to shut down in an effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19. On Wednesday, Yard Bar held a yard sale. The bar is selling off its sealed alcohol and plans to use the money collected to offer zero-interest loans to his workers.
