Kanye West, Amber Rose Volunteer At Homeless Shelter

Kanye West and Amber Rose did their part in spreading Christmas cheer this past weekend with community service.

According to TheBoomBox.com, the rapper/producer and his girlfriend joined volunteers to assist in serving lunch to the homeless on Saturday (Dec. 26).

"It's just important [to give back] when you're very blessed," said West on the matter.
West volunteered for the Los Angeles Mission, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping homeless in the city's "Skid Row" district for over 70 years. Their services are not limited to providing food, as they offer employment, transitional services and rehabilitation to those with substance abuse issues.

"[It's nice] to spread your blessings and take time out, especially during the holidays, to appreciate people who never get that appreciation," continued the superstar. "It makes me feel really good to come out here, [with] my family, and I just thank ya'll [the Los Angeles Mission] for allowing us to be apart of this."

Kanye wasn't the only rapper who helped out this Christmas, as Pitbull also contributed his efforts recently.

    * Co-Sign: HHFAN

    * its ALWAYZ good to see people give back, ESPECIALLY when its giving TIME instead of just throwing money at a situation
    -in the business world, TIME=MONEY
    -but merely giving cash can be a front for a tax write off
    -there's no way one can truly be repayed for time
    -as 2Pac said in Ressurection documentary, "Charity don't always reach the ghetto"...plus when you give time like KanYe did, he at least got to meet the people he helped

  • fadsfafg:

    there is a "web//site" named "black//white//loving" for dateing or relationship, black or white singles can go there to find something sexy or beauty online !!!!

  • HHFAN:

    Good to see people giving back.

    • westpac08:
