38 year old rapper 2 Chainz of College Park, Georgia is rising to the top, and pulling up to the scene with his ceiling missing. But as the artist says in one of his popular songs,

This is just one touching story of how 2 Chainz used money from his “Each 1 teach 1” foundation to help a disabled veteran and single parent who was struggling to make her rent in an apartment with no furniture after surgeries left her out of work.
If you want to contribute a dollar to the TRU foundation, you can purchase the “Dabbing Santa” game app in the online store. Proceeds from the app will go towards helping more families in need.
