<p data-pm-slice="0 0 []">Roommates, when it comes to rappers giving back to the community, make sure you mention Bobby Shmurda&#8217;s name. Recently he took time away from working on his highly anticipated album to give back to some well-deserving students in his community. Bobby donated 2,000 backpacks full of school supplies for students all across New York City. According to <a href="https://hiphopdx.com/news/id.64970/title.bobby-shmurda-provides-thousands-of-nyc-children-with-school-supplies-im-proud-of-yall">Hip Hop DX</a>, students at six different schools ranging from elementary through high school received bags filled with various supplies, including pencils, pens, pencil cases, notebooks, folders, highlighters, and more.</p>
<p>The participating schools included: P.S. 268 Emma Lazarus, P.S. 219 Kennedy King, P.S. 92 Adrian Hegeman in Brooklyn; Eagle Academy for Young Men III in Queens; P.S. 76 A. Philip Randolph in Harlem; and Health Opportunities High School in the Bronx. Bobby is used to giving back, so the opportunity to support students seemed like a no-brainer. Not only did he go in his bag to donate, but he used his voice to share a special message with students.</p>
<p>In a recorded video, Bobby urged the students to stay on a positive track, out of trouble, but most importantly, to remain in school. &#8220;Please do not give your mommas no trouble this year. And please do not give your teachers no trouble this year,&#8221; he said. He continued explaining to students, &#8220;I want to say that I&#8217;m proud of y&#8217;all for being brave, for being strong, and for staying in school. Always remember you guys are unstoppable. You can do anything you set your mind to.&#8221;</p>
<p>As we previously stated, Bobby isn&#8217;t new to giving back to the community. Since his return from prison in February, he organized a<a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/bobby-shmurda-provided-free-food-haircuts-to-families-on-fathers-day-video/"> Father&#8217;s Day event</a> for 200 underprivileged families at The Win Shelter in his hometown of Brooklyn this past June. While we wait for his upcoming album to drop soon, it&#8217;s great to see Bobby doing good in the community and staying focused on the music! We love to see it.</p>
