Meek Mill Donates Needed Supplies To Students From His Former Elementary School

Meek Mill has not only been fighting the corrupt justice system but has also been giving back to the community.

Last month, Meek Mill renovated the basketball court at his hometown in Philadelphia and yesterday he continued his philanthropic activity.

On September 13th of this year, the Championships artist in alliance with Puma donated over 500 backpacks to students at his old elementary school.

Meek stopped by James G. Blaine Elementary School to personally hand out the supplies and backpacks himself, as the students went crazy for not only him, but the new goodies.

He also laced their teachers with 30 classroom packs, ensuring they have what they need to teach their students efficiently during the school year.

“I wanted to stop here today, my elementary school that I grew up at… I just wanted to back and show my love and appreciation to my neighborhood,” Meek told the cheering students.

“I want to give a shoutout to Puma for collaborating with me on school supplies and book bags… I came here to give the kids a message: Continue to chase your dreams.”
