Michael Rubin, Meek Mill & Kevin Hart Announce $15 Million Donation To Philly Students

Philadelphia 76ers partner Michael Rubin teamed up with Philadelphia natives Meek Mill and Kevin Hart for a special cause. The three men are looking to help the local community in Pennsylvania’s largest city.

Michael Rubin, Meek Mill, and Kevin Hart donated a combined $15 million to 110 Philadelphia-area schools. The contribution will assist thousands of students from underserved families for the 2022-2023 academic year.  

This latest donation is an extension of Rubin and Meek’s recent philanthropic work. Previously, the Fanatics CEO and the “Stay Woke” rapper created a $2 million scholarship fund. It was used to support underprivileged Philadelphia students from Pre-K through high school.

Was a great day and meant so much to get to spend time with these amazing families and continue to learn about all the issues within the criminal justice system as it relates to probation and parole. @reform has made great strides already, but there’s so much more work to do! https://t.co/4bZ5FxgKdz
