Video: T.I. Fights to Support Homeless Veterans

Ahead of releasing his 8th album, Clifford "T.I. Harris, shows that what is really important to him is giving back to the community from which he is from.

T.I. and his wife Tiny launched his Give Like a King Foundation on December 14th from the Veterans Empowerment Organization (VEO) on Westlake Avenue, just seconds away from where T.I. grew up.

"Veterans should never be without the foundational needs of a human being," said T.I. as he announced his support of homeless veterans.  With T.I.'s support and gifts of kindness, the VEO is housing 60 homeless veterans that were found on the streets of Atlanta.  The founder of the Georgia VEO, Frantz Fortune, thanked T.I. and his family for their generosity and their time.  Fortune said, by people in Atlanta just coming here to our location and to hangout with these Vets, "does wonders for these guys."
