Ross said “I said, ‘Yo, would you wanna do a video where me and you go to Fayetteville and we give out hella money?’”
Cole Replied, ‘I love the idea, like I really appreciate that. That’s real. But I just don’t like doing shit like that on camera.’
“So, you know, that’s what I asked him. I didn’t ask him for a live stream, I asked him something like that. But I respect J. Cole on God ’cause he’s real and he does shit off camera all the time. He’s blessing people.”
Even though he likes to keep his charitable activities private, in 2011, J. Cole unveiled a charity foundation called Dreamville Foundation which has an objective of supporting children in Fayetteville.
According to its website, the foundation does the following “Since our inception, we have continued to serve children and support their family members who are attempting to overcome obstacles in their social environment in and around Fayetteville. Over the years, we have expanded to other cities and states,”
“Overall, we provide these youth and families with the necessary resources for achieving their goals. ‘Obstacles’ have included, but are not limited to financial strain, physical, mental, alcohol, and drug abuse.
“Our mission is to bridge the gap between the worlds of opportunity for urban youth. We are dedicated to providing much needed resources, charitable donations, programs, and events that empower and inspire our youth to achieve success in reaching their dreams.”
