Young Jeezy and his Street Dreamz Foundation are notorious for their charitable endeavors and efforts to give back to the community. Now on the brink of Thanksgiving, Jeezy and his foundation are stepping up to host an event for local Atlanta youth.

This year, Street Dreamz is teaming up with non-profit ‘Kids With Strong Opinions Inc.' where Jeezy will host the inaugural “A Day of Giving Thanks” event. Twenty-six lucky students were chosen to participate in this program based on recommendations from school administrators, class participation, grades, behavior and financial needs. The lineup of students and their families will be given a turkey dinner and treated to “A Night Out with the Hawks," an evening of basketball on November 26, 2009.

The man himself Young Jeezy, spoke out on his impending charitable endeavor and chance to help out youth in a press release saying,

“I am thankful to be able to stay apart of our youth today and the direction that they may choose to pursue. To me, the success behind being Young Jeezy, behind the fame is being able to take time out and help the less fortunate when I am able to."
