Rapper Young Jeezy gives away toys to about 200 Macon children

Published: December 24, 2012 

Rapper Young Jeezy gave toys to about 200 children at Macon’s Booker T. Washington Community Center Monday.

“It’s pretty much my Christmas gift,” Young Jeezy said after the giveaway.

Young Jeezy is behind the platinum albums “Let’s Get It: Thug Motivatation 101” and “The Inspiration,” as well as gold albums “The Recession” and “Thug Motivation 103: Hustlerz Ambition.”

Young Jeezy has been visiting the center for five years, said Pastor Tony Lowden, who directs the center’s after-school program Stone Academy. Many of the children at the giveaway attend the program.

Lowden said he is glad to see Young Jeezy give back, especially because the Stone Academy serves many needy children.

“We’re excited about having him in the area,” Lowden said.

In addition to his stop in Macon, Young Jeezy will also be giving out toys in two Atlanta locations Monday.
