This past weekend Future and Mike WiLL Made-It Foundation’s teamed up for one of two events for Future’s third annual holiday campaign benefiting senior citizens and the youth of Atlanta. FreeWishes and Making Wishes Matter Foundations joined forces to host a An Evening To Remember for local Atlanta senior citizens. The third annual Thanksgiving dinner took place at the East Lake Family YMCA. Over 300 seniors were transported from several YMCAs to the private location where they were provided a lavish Thanksgiving dinner, live entertainment, pictures in the OMG booth, and a surprise visit by Future and Mike WiLL Made-It. The seniors were also gifted with a full Thanksgiving meal to feed a family of five, provided by Walmart. Special guests of the evening included Future, Mike WiLL Made-It and Councilman Kwanza Hall.
Councilman Hall presented the duo’s foundations and Radio One with a proclamation recognizing their efforts in the community. Both natives to Atlanta, Future and Mike WiLL Made-It have made charity a central mission of their work with their annual philanthropic efforts. Special thanks to this year’s partners, Radio One, Walmart, Black Celebrity Giving, Atlanta Music Project and Community Compilation.
The Christmas Extravaganza and Community Coat Drive will take place on December 20th for underprivileged Atlanta children and families. The Holiday Extravaganza will target hundreds of youth, youth homes, and more for a Winter Wonderland where they will be gifted with brand new coats, toys, and winter items. Both Future and Mike WiLL Made-It will be on-site.
