According to the Houston Chronicle, the “Sicko Mode” rapper recently donated $100,000 to an after-school nonprofit called Workshop Houston in the city’s Third Ward. The organization was one of the groups who helped Scott put on a local festival last year called “Astroworld,” named after his current album.

In the beginning, Workshop Houston was a community bicycle shop that was started by four graduates of Oberlin College. Now, on it’s website, the organization is described as a “well-established youth development agency,” which offers classes in dance, music production, fashion and graphic design.

Jaime Herrero, who works with Workshop Houston, spoke of Scott’s sizable gift and said it came at a real time of need.
“It really couldn’t have come at a better time for us and so, it wasn’t quite a Christmas miracle, but it was a really great gift,” said Herrero.
The organization is now in its 15th year and just moved into a new $1.9 million facility. Scott has remained quiet about the donation and hasn’t made any announcements or posts about it.... spill TEA ☕ Easy on Shade #jaiyeorie
