This local initiative to help fund the full-time restaurant works of the neighborhood has been created by Mike Shaw owner of Loco and Fat Baby.  The Winter Fund’s goal is to simply match what full-time employees of Fat Baby and Loco made, dollar-for-dollar, in February and March of 2019.  Anything extra will be given to other South Boston restaurant employees. You can make a donation here! Loco and Fat Baby are both selling swag for the cause too! You can purchase at each restaurant!
