#HOODIESFORHOMELESS



WHATS GOOD? ITS YA BOY A.D. KILLA FROM MTV'S "FROM G'S TO GENTS 2" AND MTV'S TRUELIFE. HERES A QUICK OVERVIEW OF THE CHARITY I STARTED, #HOODIESFORHOMELESS. NO ONE SEEMS TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO JUST "GIVE" THESE DAYS, PEOPLE ALWAYS WANT A REWARD OR A TAX WRITEOFF, WELL THE ONLY REWARD YOU GET FROM THIS IS SATISFACTION OF HELPING SOMEONE WHO NEEDS IT.

FIRST OFF, MY CHARITY IS 10000% GIVING BACK... THERES NO PAY PAL ACCOUNT, NO MONEY COMING IN, JUST GOOD PEOPLE/COMPANYS DONATING WARM CLOTHES TO HAND OUT TO THE LESS FORTUNATE AROUND THE CITY. NOT LIMITED TO CLOTHES, WE ALSO TAKE BLANKETS, SOCKS, JACKETS, PANTS, SHOES, ANYTHING THAT WILL WARM THE CITY UP...

HERES A LITTLE STORY BEHIND WHY I STARTED #HOODIESFORHOMELESS...

I WAS WALKING DOWN MARIETTA STREET AND ITS STARTING TO GET COLD AT NIGHT. I SAW A MAN WITH HIS SON (THE MAN LOOKED ABOUT 25-30) AND I COULD LITTERALLY HEAR HIS TEETH CHATTERING. I HAD A BRAND NEW PAIR OF SHOES ON AND A NEW JACKET, I DIDNT HESITATE, TOOK THE JACKET OFF AND HANDED IT TO HIM, ALSO TOOK MY SHOES OFF AND HANDED THEM OVER. HE LOOKED UP AND SMILED, SAID IT WAS THE FIRST TIME HE GENUINELY SMILED IN MONTHS... IT WAS A HEART WARMING EXPERIENCE, SO I LAUNCHED #HOODIESFORHOMELESS

ATTACHED IS PICTURES FROM OUR FIRST HAND OUT ON (10-10-10) AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO HAND OUTS EVERY OTHER SUNDAY. ME AND TIFFINY HANDED THEM OUT WHILE NOW THATS A GOOD LOOK TV COVERED IT..

WE LITTERALLY SHUT DOWN PEACHTREE AND MARIETTA TO GIVE BACK TO THE HOMELESS...

NOT ONLY DID WE PASS OUT OVER 40 JACKETS, BUT I MADE ONE INPARTICULAR PERSONS DAY ALOT BETTER WHO REALLY NEEDED IT, GIVING HIM A BRAND NEW PAIR OF JUG SHOES AND A JUG FOOTWEAR JACKET...

ANYTHING YOU CAN DO TO HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED, EITHER IF ITS DONATING JACKETS, HELPING COLLECT THEM, OR POSTING THIS AS A BLOG TO PROMOTE THE CHARITY!

THANKS AND GOD BLESS,
