Report: LeBron Provides Food for 1,300 People in Akron as Coronavirus Relief

Lakers star LeBron James and the LeBron James Family Foundation fed 340 I Promise School students and their families Tuesday, providing enough food for more than 1,300 people, according to USA Today's Jeff Zillgitt.

It marked a meaningful "Taco Tuesday" for James and his foundation. In addition to feeding the needy families, he also in the process helped an Akron restaurant that had been struggling to find customers amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Per Zillgitt, the foundation is planning on holding another special Taco Tuesday next week and will deliver even more meals.
