Cardi B Gives Back To The Hood

Cardi B never ceases to amaze! On Thursday night, the 26-year-old rapper made a visit to the Gravesend neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York for a special cause. She pulled up at 8:30 p.m. EST to a housing project, Marlboro Houses, to hand out free coats to a crowd of her fans.

The temperature that night dropped to the low 40s and was by far, one of the coldest nights in the city thus far. The temperature was so cold that there were even freezing warnings in the area. Amidst the cold, hundreds of fans came to support her.

“It’s a great thing for the community,” one father reported. “The kids love her, everybody loves her. And we just want to see her.”

In addition to the free coats, pairs of shoes were also donated by Trax NYC, Daniel’s Leather, NY Tent Sale. The event was hosted at the Marlboro Houses’ community center and the Boost Mobile store across the street.

During the event the “I Like It” star mingled with fans, posing for pictures and showing her #BardiGang love.

“We’ve gotta set an example for the kids and the future,” Cardi stated (PIX-11 reported). “You know, sometimes people think that we just be doing the messed up things, but we really, really, really care for our kids, our community and everything.”

The organizers of the event also gave her keys to the Marlboro Houses and recognized her incredible donation. Fans celebrated with her and showed her their appreciation for her gifts, music, and humble personality.
