50 Cent has revealed that he's donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to several different Louisiana-based non-profits.
On Wednesday (March 25), the G-Unit mogul took to Instagram to post a clip of himself at a Shreveport event, where he donated $500,000 to several organizations — many of which focus on helping those who have suffered at the hands of domestic violence.
"Man I gave them 500k they said 4 🤨," he captioned the post. "Man cooper road know what’s up ! @phlivenyc @50centaction."
Fif also gave a speech in which he referenced his Netflix documentary, Sean Combs: The Reckoning, which focuses on the past sexual misconduct allegations made against Diddy.
"I'm excited to be here," 50 said to applause and laughter around the 11:25 mark in the clip below. "The idea of making the donation to these organizations, it came along with me producing the documentary for Netflix, and I said I would donate proceeds to domestic violence and to sexual assault victims, and I keep my word, right? I didn't say where I would make the donations, and I like Shreveport."
He also addressed the frequent beefs he gets into online with his peers.
"You'll see a lot of energy that's coming from the same documentary; the celebrity culture didn't say anything about those things that were going on for a very long time, and it's because they're afraid of people who have success, but I have success without any of those things involved," he said.
"I don't care about that, you know. You'll see I'll have minor specs or disputes. … Those things will happen because those people were comfortable with things that were going on, or they accepted it."
“I'm excited to be a part of a community and participate in a different way," 50 concluded. "I like to speak through my actions."
According to KSLA News 12, 50 donated to a total of nine organizations: Gingerbread House, The Fountain’s Community Development Corporation, Families Helping Families Region 7, Elle Foundation, Moms on a Mission, Best 13, MLK Community Development Corporation, MLK Neighborhood Association, and Northwest Louisiana Youth Golf & Education Foundation.
