Countless artists and businesses in Young Dolph’s hometown of Memphis will take part in the upcoming events, including PRE rappers Paper Route Woo and Snupe Bandz, who are set to host a turkey giveaway at Christ Missionary Baptist Church in South Memphis. Additionally, Memphis area businesses such as Cxffee Black and Sweet Magnolia Gelato will donate a portion of the purchases of special menu items to the Ida Mae Foundation.

In Atlanta, the foundation will hand out hygiene kits with the help of Barrio ATL during the day, in addition to hosting a holiday dinner at the Atlanta Mission Center later on in the evening. PRE signee Chitana will be handling the Chicago turkey giveaway on the Southside of the city that’s taking place at the Lionel Hampton Fine and Performing Arts school.
