Earlier this year, Shift4 launched the SkyTab Rescue Mission Contest in partnership with Jon Taffer to provide critical support to small businesses in need of assistance. Each submission was carefully reviewed by Shift4 leadership and Jon Taffer to select the final winners, who were chosen based on the quality of their submission, their particular needs, and the impact they have on their local communities.

The first winner is The Park Supper Club, a lounge and event space in Chicago, IL.

“We located in this particular neighborhood even though a lot of people advised us not to. But we decided that was exactly what the community needed,” Maryann Marsh, co-owner of The Park Supper Club. “This prize will ensure The Park Supper Club can stay in this great community and remain a beacon of hope for other businesses like ours.”

The second winner is Ralph’s Sports Bar Restaurant, a sports bar, restaurant, and event space in Staten Island, NY.

“We are a community driven operation. Our goal is to support first responders, hospitals, local schools, and other nonprofit organizations,” said Ralph Tafuri, owner of Ralph’s Sports Bar Restaurant. “We see this as an opportunity to take our business to the next level and do more for the community.”

“I was excited to partner on this initiative with Shift4, a company that shares my passion of supporting small businesses,” said Jon Taffer. “MaryAnn and Ralph are two very deserving winners and I look forward to working with them and lending my support. I can’t wait to see how they use the cash prize and put to use the numerous benefits offered by a new SkyTab POS system. I think we can really make a difference for them.”

“We could not have picked two more deserving winners,” said Shift4 CEO Jared Isaacman. “MaryAnn’s and Ralph’s stories are truly inspiring and embody the community and perseverance that is so central to small businesses across this country. I could not be more thrilled to support them and their businesses through this contest.”
