The third annual Senior Citizen Thanksgiving Dinner takes place on November 21st and the Christmas Extravaganza and Community Coat Drive will take place on December 20th for underprivileged Atlanta children and families.
Both natives to Atlanta, Future and Mike WiLL Made-It have made charity a central mission of their work with their annual philanthropic efforts.

The Senior Citizen's Thanksgiving Dinner will gather Seniors from the YMCA's across the city of Atlanta, treat them to a night filled with dinner and dancing and gift them with complete Thanksgiving dinners to take home. The Holiday Extravaganza will target hundreds of youth, youth homes, and more for a Winter Wonderland where they will be gifted with brand new coats, toys, and winter items. Both Future and Mike WiLL Made-It will be on-site at each event.
