Drake surprises Biology student with tuition aid

The 20 years old who studies at the University of Miami, shared in detail the moment Drake surprised her with the check this February 5th.

“I was contacted this weekend to make a video talking about where I came from, the things I went through and why it is so important for scholarship donors to continue donating,” she told her followers in an Instagram post.

“@champagnepapi THANK YOU!” She continued.

 “You do not understand what this means to me. I would never have imagined that this would happen to me, I am just a girl from Denmark, South Carolina who wants to DO IT. Be someone to see that hard work means the world. Thank you for blessing me when I thought my hard work went unnoticed. I am living my dreams, God’s plan.”

This happened today. I applied to scholarships last year for which I had to write an essay. I received those scholarships and thought that was the end of it. Apparently, my essay and my story made it to other departments. I was contacted this weekend about doing a video speaking about where I come from, things I've been through, and why it is so important for scholarship donors to continue to donate. This was the surprise the whole time. Drake told me that he has read great things about me and appreciates how hard I've worked through so many trials and decided to give me $50K for my tuition. @champagnepapi THANK YOU SO MUCH!!' You don't understand what this means to me! I would've never imagined this happening to me. I'm just a girl from Denmark, SC that wants to MAKE IT and be somebody and for you to see my hard work means the world. Thank you so much. God I thank you. You are so great and amazing! Thank you for blessing me when I thought my hard work was going unnoticed. I'm living out my dreams. God's Plan 🙏🏾

More rappers adding to the cause

Drake has not yet commented anything about this donation, but this has not stopped fans from celebrating the gesture after hearing the news. He’s been adding after his charitable display.

“Drake saved lives, hahaha,” said one person. Another simply wrote: “Legend.”

A third added: “That is why I will ALWAYS love Aubrey!”

A few hours earlier, the rapper from Young Money presented Miami Senior High with a $ 25,000 check after passing by to record a video of his latest hit God’s Plan song at school.

Drake had a crane on the baseball field of this school while a drone was flying over it to record the concert. A video that was posted on social media shows the students excited as they sing and record this presentation.

Intervening in many ways

The rapper will also be given the task of designing new school uniforms, a spokesperson for the Miami-Dade school district confirmed

In May of 2017, Drake’s label partner Nicky Minaj distributed college tuition, student loans, books and other supplies after a fan asked for financial aid on Twitter.

In March of 2017, Chance The Rapper donated $1 million to schools in Chicago. All for “arts and enrichment programming.”

Without a doubt these artists do not turn their backs on the people in need, having this kind of gestures to help the community!
