Canned foods, water, juice, cereal, noodles, snacks, and other non-perishable food items are needed.
C&J Resources offers tutoring in all subjects for grades Pre-K-12, as well as homework assistance and more in Tuscaloosa. The food giveaway came about because "I wanted to give back to the community," said Owner Chante Rice.

The community and area businesses are on board for this amazing event. It's even sponsored by Buffalo Rock.
With a goal of giving away at least 30 food boxes, Chante Rice spoke about how it feels to organize such a needed event in Tuscaloosa.
