Russell Simmons Supports 50 Cent's Plan To Feed Africa

By on

Russell Simmons has shown his support for 50 Cent following the rapper’s charity wish to help Africa on Twitter.

“I want to impact people’s lives more. I created a new goal for myself, I want to feed 1 billion people in Africa over the next 5 years,” tweeted 50 Cent earlier this week.

Hip-hop mogul Simmons was quick to back his friend up: “It is always inspiring to see people who come from ‘hell’ who want to create heaven,” he told GlobalGrind.com. "Like Malcolm X and many others who have come from struggle, it is the journey out of darkness to become advocates of light that is the most impressive.

“What I read from 50 shows the maturation of an artist and the maturation of a man. As I have always said, celebrity ain’t worth s**t unless you can help people. Keep pushing 50, we will follow your lead!”

We are missionaries in Kenya, Africa and we are returning to our work in February. It is our goal to teach people how to cook with the sun, saving their land and their trees. To teach them how to raise the water table in their land and bring the desert back to life. And to teach them alternative farming methods which will produce more food on less land and with less water.

These projects will help to feed the people of Kenya. If you would like to join us or if you would like information so that you can start similar projects in other areas, please write to us,
