Drake donates $1 million to people in Miami
God’s plan is out and available on YouTube. Within 24 hours the hit record has more than 1.5million streaming views.
Major news publications picked up on the story as they consider the rapper for being a philanthropist. None of the people in the video were in on the act, nor is it a planned move. In fact, you can read the expression of awe on their face.
His recent action brought a lot of noise in the city of Miami. So much so that, people were being caught by surprise when a young Drake walks up to them. The singer shared hugs, kissed babies, shook hands with many and hand them over large amount of money.
We can see him sharing a bit of happiness with the women in the park as he gives them pile of money. A smile on his face, he genuinely shares: “We are nothing without our mothers”.
He went on to the University of Miami. A joyful crowd greeted him upon his entrance. The students were excited. Drake donated an estimated $50,000 and willingly choose to pay up for student’s scholarship.
As time went on, he donated money to the Miami Fire Department, the after-school programs and so much more.
But the biggest even of the day happened when he entered a shopping mall. With a microphone in his hands, a timid Drake steps on the cashier. He faces the crowd and humbly introduce himself. The crowd gathers itself around the moment. They slowly recognize his figure. He seems like they know him. May be on television? Yes. That’s it. It’s Drake.
The Toronto rapper offers to pay for everyone’s purchase. In his own words, “Take anything you want, I will pay for it”.
