+ About a week ago, Chance The Rapper lived up to his name by donating $1 million to Chicago Public Schools to give the children of Chicago a chance for a better education. Now, those same pupils are determined to give back to the rapper. In an open letter published on Billboard, three CPS students from Lake View High School thanked the rapper for his continued support of their peers. Of all the celebrities who call Chicago home, they emphasized, his charitable actions and commitment to mentorship and growth are not only inspiring but needed and appreciated by the youth who struggle to prosper in underprivileged areas.
