Rapper 2 Chainz is probably mostly known for his music, but he also runs a foundation. His Tru Foundation helps many families in need, and the rapper himself comes from a humble background.
He says on Instagram, "I remember using the oven to heat the house, I would stand in the kitchen for hours to stay warm."
This holiday season, he made a family of two in need very happy — a family that reminded of his own. Dierdre Plater is not just a disabled veteran, but also a single mom. She had a hard time paying for rent and other necessities for her and her young son, who is homeschooled — they even faced eviction. She recently underwent surgery, and has been looking for a job for a year with no luck. The family's home also has almost no furniture.
2 Chainz visited Dierdre and her son in the Georgia home, and brought his camera crew to capture the heartwarming moment he breaks the good news to the single mom: Not only will the rapper be paying her rent for the next year, but he also brought with him a U-Haul filled with furniture for their home.
The proceeds came from the rapper's Dabbing Santa Ugly Sweaters store. He plans to use the unused funds to spread more holiday cheer!
If you were touched by the family's gratitude, please SHARE!
