A program to bring free groceries to middle school students in the Huffman area
has been allocated nearly $300,000.

On Tuesday, the Birmingham Board of Education approved plans to allocate
$277,500 toward a two-year pilot program to place a grocery store in Huffman
Middle School, Bhamnow.com reports. Produce and packaged goods will be available
for free to students in need through the program.



Birmingham City Council Member Clinton Woods proposed the idea based on a
similar initiative he saw in Atlanta.

Goodr will be the program’s vendor. It is based in Atlanta.

Goodr opened a location in April in Forestdale, the BBJ previously reported.
Goodr is a startup that promotes a free and low-cost shopping experience. Its
Forestdale address is 1500 Daniel Payne Drive.

Goodr provides technology and logistics to track an organization’s surplus food
from pick up to donation, and partners with organizations across the country to
get groceries and meals to communities in need, according to its website, among
other services.

Goodr Inc. was named one of Atlanta’s fastest-growing private companies early in
2024 by the Atlanta Business Chronicle. To qualify for the list, companies had
to be based in metro Atlanta with 2023 revenue between $1 million and $300
million and two-year growth in sales of more than 50%.

The Link Entrepreneur Center opened in 2023 next to Huffman Middle School. It
provides trainings, networking and seminars, and features private office spaces
and open space rental, a conference room, workspace, a podcast recording studio,
a headshot studio, a livestream studio and a merchandise branding store for
local entrepreneurs.
