Some of the organizations that receieved donations include Gingerbread House, The Fountain’s Community Development Corporation (CDC), and Families Helping Region 7.
In total, Fif distributed $500,000 across multiple nonprofits. The Queens native even made an appearance in Louisiana to explain why he chose to give back to the area.
“The idea of making a donation to these organizations came along with me producing the documentary for Netflix. I said I would donate proceeds to domestic violence and sexual assault victims, and I kept my word. I didn’t say where I would make the donations, but I like Shreveport.”
