Tuxton China Inc., a leading tabletop supplier to the foodservice industry, announced their second-year partnership with C-CAP, the Careers through Culinary Arts Program. Tuxton is donating a percentage of their total sales from the month of September to the Los Angeles location.
“As Tuxton continues to grow as a company, we want to help partners we believe in and causes we can support which is going above and beyond to help those in our industry,” says Marketing Director Jennifer Rolander. “We chose C-CAP as our Tuxton Cares partner because they are committed to helping disadvantaged high school students by providing them the tools to prepare for college and culinary careers. Their organization is extraordinary, and we are excited about a long and fruitful relationship with not only the Los Angeles location but their other locations across the country as well.”
“We at Tuxton China are very excited to continue our association with C-CAP. This is a charitable organization we can partner and grow with that has a direct impact on the industry we are a part of. This partnership allows us to give back and help these kids become a valued part of this wonderful industry,” says Bill Burden, President of Tuxton China.
“We are excited to partner again with Tuxton China Company, an industry leader in assisting and fortifying programs like ours.
