50 Cent To Donate $300K To Houston High Schools
“The kids that won’t listen to nobody, will listen to me, we come out of the same kinda confusion,” 50 wrote in an Instagram post. “This program is just gonna show them how to win. #bransoncognac #lecheminduroi.”
In the future, the artist, born as Curtis Jackson, said he believes the programs will only grow and expand much larger than the initial launch size.
“It’s three schools right now, but it’s going to be a lot more, just watch me,” he said.
Additionally, during the press conference, the mayor proudly welcomed the New York-native to the city.
“I am honored to be your mayor,” Turner said.
“This program is another platform to help build the leaders and workforce of the future. Educational opportunities play a key role in Houston’s quality of life,” the mayor added in his statement.
The 45-year-old’s educational program has been in development for over two years, and he plans to establish a network across the country in the future, according to HipHop DX.
The entrepreneur’s charity, G-Unity Foundation, a partner in the Houston program’s launch, works to improve the quality of life for low-income communities in America.
“I’ve spent years donating my time and energy to communities in need. I started G-Unity to do the same—to give back to kids so they have it a little easier than I did,” the rapper wrote for the foundation’s website. “Team building and entrepreneurship are skills I learned along the way, but they are so important to develop early. I look forward to G-Unity supporting programs that are doing the crucial work of teaching kids to excel at life.”
