Megan Thee Stallion Launches Emergency Power Program for Houston Seniors

By

In her efforts to help her hometown Houston in the recovery process of the disastrous Hurricane Beryl, American rapper Megan Thee Stallion and her foundation have launched an Emergency Power Program for senior citizens.

The rapper announced the supportive initiative in a statement on Thursday the 18th of July 2024. According to her, her foundation in partnership with Bread of Life is giving senior citizens of her hometown generators so they can access electricity during disasters.

The announcement of the initiative comes after Hurricane Beryl killed 52 people and caused more than 6 billion in damages across the Gulf Coast and Caribbean regions of the United States earlier this month.

” It’s been painful to watch the elderly population in Houston suffer without electricity during these devastating storms. “That’s why we wanted to partner with Bread of Life to take a strategic approach to this problem and secure generators to help protect our senior citizens. We need to  do our part to provide our elders with the best resources possible to withstand future emergencies.” The 29-year-old rapper said in her press statement.

Across Houston, the Hurricane left 2.7 million people without power for a long period. 

Commenting on the partnership with the rapper, Found of Bread of Life Rudy Rasmus said in a statement;

“We want to expand our support of the most vulnerable people in the city, and Hurricane Beryl, the derecho and other storms have highlighted that our seniors are in dire need of assistance.” 

“Through our partnership with Megan Thee Stallion and her Pete and Thomas Foundation, we hope to provide generators to senior personal care homes this hurricane season. Our goal is to provide generators to our most vulnerable seniors ahead of storms or other events that knock out power so there is no interruption in service” the statement further indicated.
