Thanks for Giving!! Barack Obama, Kevin Hart, Pharrell Williams and Many More Celebs Give Back on Thanksgiving

Is it to late to thank these celebs for rolling up their sleeves to give those less fortunate?

Nope, cause the holiday weekend isn’t over yet.

So let’s raise a glass of spiked eggnog to Kevin Hart for making giving a family affair. By bringing wife Eniko, daughter Heaven, son Hendrix and baby boy Kenzo to LA mission to feed homeless on Skid Row.

The Night School actor wasn’t the only celeb giving back. Garcelle Beauvais and “The Real” co-host Loni Love also donned aprons.

“The Jamie Foxx” star brought along twin boys Jax and Jade to chip in.

Super producer Pharrell Williams even made giving back look lit. He served meals alongside wife Helen Lasichanh and son Rocket Ayers Williams. He’s literally the Happy crooner’s twin.

“Empire” star Nia Long was on green duty with boys Massai Zhavigo Dorsey II and Kez Sunday Udoka.

Meanwhile, at Chi-Town food bank my forever president Barack Obama volunteered to help prep for Thanksgiving.

Obama was tasked with packaging potatoes at Chicago Food Depository.

Big Sean & Meek Mill Serve Up Thanksgiving Cheer

If no one has told you yet, I’ll surely do the honors: Happy Thanksgiving, y’all. Among the many things I’m thankful for is your roaming eyes on my page. Thanks from the bottom of my heart for the comments, likes and other props. It’s deeply appreciated.

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday for so many reasons, but if someone pushed me for an explanation it’s because of all the memories produced on the day. One that sticks out the most is the last Thanksgiving with my Nana. The most beautiful brain image EVER!! At the risk of sounding sappy, I think it’s important that everyone have at least one experience like that with their friends and family.

Rappers Meek Mill and Big Sean helped to make it happen by giving back to their communities.

Meek Mill visited his hometown of Philly to kick off his inaugural “Dreamchasers Thanksgiving,” a two day event that aims to feed 600 families around the city of Brotherly love. Philly Mayor Michael Nutter joined Mill and released this statement:

I applaud Meek Mill for taking the initiative to give back to his home town. Gathering together with family and friends around a shared meal is one of the most important aspects of the holiday season. It is important to give thanks for all that we have, and I am proud that one of Philadelphia’s own is donating his time and resources to make sure families in our city can do just that

Meek Mill humbly gave this response on his generosity:

Philly raised me and made me into the man I am today, so to do the first annual ‘A Dreamchaser’s Thanksgiving,’ was an obvious thing to do. I’m blessed to be in a position where I can make sure that as many people as possible have a meal on Thanksgiving, so that they can be with their loved ones to enjoy the holiday.

So inspiring. I’m loving the hearts thrown Philly’s way. Even from lil Kevin.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone, eat and be merry XOXO
