URBAN NEWS: T.I. and Fellow Rappers Raise Money For The Homeless

the Hosea Williams Feed The Hungry and Homeless Foundation holds an annual Thanksgiving dinner, however this year's 38th annual event was in jeopardy as the charity's executive director stated that the Foundation had lost the support of a $150, 000 donor.

This announcement motivated Atlanta, Georgia talk show host Ryan Cameron and Hip Hop superstar T.I. into action. The two announced the dilemma on Cameron's television program and called upon celebrity friends such as Busta Rhymes, Big Boi, Mr. Collipark, Ne-Yo and Wyclef Jean, who all made sizeable donations to the charity.

The contributions of the artists, as well as viewers at home, helped raise $166, 000 for the Hosea Williams Feed The Hungry and Homeless Foundation's Thanksgiving dinner, beyond what the charity was expecting. The event will now go forward.
