For many years,Jenna Arcidiacono has made headlines for serving up all kinds of good deeds across West Michigan.Her latest effort to help local restaurants,called " Tip Back Thursday" ,is now making waves on social media.
Arcidiacono ,the owner of Amore Trattoria Italiana,said she got the idea after her kids introduced her to Tik Tok."I found a girl in Nashville who was doing crowdfunding to tip a server ,"she explained. "I want to start doing that here locally.However,instead of giving to one person,I'd like to bless a whole place.So we decided that we' re just going to tip big for a whole staff."
With the community' s support,the Tip Back Thursday movement has caught on,raising more than ﹩20,000 in just six weeks.Arcidiacono selects several local restaurants to bless each week with a big tip,usually of ﹩1,000 or more.
"We' ve had a few who didn't even know what to say,because they' re not expecting it,said Arcidiacono. "You don't know what someone else is going through or how much they' re struggling,because they' re going to smile at work and get through it. "
Arcidiacono had to close Amore for several months at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.Her restaurant is still operating at limited capacity due to the latest stale health order. " We' ve had a rough emotional year,financial year,and everything' s been hard,so we' re just trying to keep our heads up," she said.I struggled this year too,because I missed having people here,because that' s what I love—I love having people to spoil(寵)."
Arcidiacono has no idea how long Tip Back Thursday will last,but she hopes it will continue. "I just feel so good when I get to give back to someone who is in the same position as I' m in.I would hope that if I were in that position,someone would do that for me."
