The force that is Chance The Rapper simply can’t be stopped. He stopped by the WGN studios to deliver the weather report and raise awareness for both the station’s toy drive and his own SocialWorks program benefitting Chicago Public Schools. We learned a lot watching this report, most notably that St. Louis is apparently now part of Illinois!

Speaking of his SocialWorks program, Google recently donated $1 million to the program to “joined forces to ”bring computer science education to Chicago Public Schools (CPS).”

2017 has been a pretty crap year all around, so I’m happy to see at least one guy is trying to keeps things positive and make a real difference. Thanks, Chance.
