Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?

PRLog (Press Release) - Dec 29, 2009 -
Urban fashion retailer DTLR and rap artist Young Jeezy partnered again to celebrate Christmas with 25 Atlanta-area families.

Atlanta-based rap artist Young Jeezy shut down popular Atlanta restaurant Justin’s to host a special holiday dinner for 25 Paul D. West Middle students and their families.  In addition to the dinner, students and families enjoyed a night of dancing and gifts. DTLR provided each student with mp3 players, socks and one lucky student received a $200 gift certificate to DTLR.

“We love working with Young Jeezy and his Street Dreamz Foundation,” said DTLR District Manager Danny Tonkins.  “Jeezy wants to make a difference in the lives of urban youth, which is at the core of our company philosophy.  Having a partner with the notoriety and respect of Jeezy and the desire to truly impact change in the lives of others is a great and rare thing.”

In addition to the Christmas partnership, DTLR and Jeezy joined forces to provide the same 25 students and their families with full Thanksgiving dinners and took the students to a Hawks game.

Says Jeezy: “I plan to mentor these kids, be there for them.”
