Lil Romeo Celebrates 21st Birthday By Helping Youth With Cancer

While celebrating another year of life, yesterday, Romeo Miller was also working hard to ensure that other youth have the same opportunity.

The rapper/actor held a star-studded Birthday Bash Block Party yesterday for his 21st birthday, and also used the event to raise money and awareness for youth with cancer.

Held at Millions of Milkshakes in West Hollywood, the party’s invited guest included  Rob Kardashian, Megan Good, Victoria Justice, Selena Gomez, Ron Artest, Big Time Rush, Rashad McCants, Robbie Arnell, Ashley Argota, Ray J and many more but the major theme was bringing awareness to the crippling disease.

Romeo who partnered up with organization CureForKidsCancer.org after recently visiting kids in Children’s Hospital had this to say,

“Now that I’m a man, I realize that life is not about how much money you make or the material things you acquire. Life is about love, loving your family, loving others, and loving God by helping others in need. It’s not about what you have but what you do with what you have that matters and that’s why I give.”

Romeo added that he felt the need to help because,

“There are so many young minority kids with cancer that can’t afford treatment.”

CureForKidsCancer.org is an organization providing emotional support for parents, siblings and oncology patients, linking children and families with similar diagnoses and solutions.
