Nationally recognized artist Kodak Black announced he teamed up with Greenacres Nissan to gift a recent graduate a free car ahead of Kodak Black Day: Car Show Edition during a recent press conference.

Kodak Black is no stranger to philanthropic gestures. The young rapper has a documented history of assisting families of fallen officers, donating $100,000 to Nova Southeastern University, financially contributing towards Marjory Stoneman Douglas High, and partaking in grassroots initiatives like going door to door donating air conditioners and food to those in need.

Now, he hopes that gifting a car to a deserving high school graduate from an underserved community will change the direction of a student’s life and college endeavors.

“The student is driven. He’s ambitious. He has goals. The car is going to help him get to his destiny faster,” said Kodak.

Although Kodak Black and the team have already chosen the student via Tu Es Bella, an organization founded by media personality and philanthropist Stichiz that supports high school students transitioning to college, the recipient is still unaware. They will find out during the Kodak Black Day: Car Show Edition event on Sunday.

“The student thinks they won tickets to come to Kodak Black Day, but when they get there, they’ll find out. The car will be ready with a bow,” said Francky Pierre-Paul, who supports many of Kodak Black’s charitable campaigns.

The donated Nissan won’t be the only decorated car at the event.

Kodak Black Day: Car Show Edition is being held in Pompano this Sunday, June 11,  from 12p-6p at Pompano Community Park and will showcase 100 of the hottest cars and bikes from across the nation competing to win a cash prize. The second annual event will have live music, food, a Kid Zone, and vendors. Tickets are still on sale at www.kodakblackday.com
