YG And 4Hunnid Ways Host Toy Drive In Santa Monica, California

YG's non-profit organization, 4Hunnid Ways Foundation, hosted a Christmas Toy Drive in Santa Monica, California.

Christmas was a good one for some families in Santa Monica, California, thanks to a Christmas toy drive by hip-hop artist YG.

According to Complex, the Compton-bred rapper and his non-profit organization, 4Hunnid Ways Foundation, hosted a Christmas Toy Drive at Fame Cast Media in Santa Monica. The event was sponsored by the Zeus Network and was held to uplift children in foster care and families with autistic children.

YG attended the event with his daughters, Harmony, 8, and Vibe, 4, and his niece Londyn, 11, and nephew, Kreu, 7.

More than 300 disadvantaged children and their families attended the event. Family members met Santa Claus at the toy drive and participate in a talent show. A mobile game truck was on the scene as well as a mobile spa. Guests also were entertained by a dance crew and live performances.

This is far from the first time YG has helped those in need. According to AllHipHop, in 2020, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, his foundation distributed $10,000 worth of personal protective equipment to those in need.

4Hunnid Ways Foundation is led by YG’s mother, Shona Jackson. According to the organization’s website, it started as a place that assisted children in foster care but has since expanded. Its homeless program provides meals, food, clothing, and other household essentials. There’s also a program that helps people recently released from prison adjust to returning to the community.

4Hunnid Ways Foundation’s other services include counseling and job development and healthy eating.

Before his very successful toy drive, YG was seen at the 10th Annual TDE Holiday Concert and Toy Drive on Dec. 19, along with other notable recording artists, including SZA, Jay Rock, and ScHoolboy Q.
