So the word is that rapper/actor/entrepreneur Ludacris and actress/philanthropist Keshia Knight Pulliam came together to help families in need. These two inspirational people have come up with the idea to feed 250 Atlanta families for the Thanksgiving holiday. I think that these two are doing a great thing because some people are not able to have a great dinner for Thanksgiving and it is also great that these celebrities are giving back to their hometown.
"The two philanthropists and their foundations are aiming to feed over 250 Atlanta-based families for the Thanksgiving holiday.Both organizations are calling on the city of Atlanta to donate canned goods (candied yams, string beans, and cranberry sauce) non-perishable food items (boxed mashed potatoes and stuffing) and turkeys for the many families in need.
There are bins located at three drop-off locations throughout the city including Wet Willies, Beya Salon Studios and Ted's Montana Grill.The bins will be set-up to receive donations from now until Friday, November 14th.

"Now more than ever, with the state of the economy, the holiday season will be especially difficult for families with an even greater need than ever before. Kamp Kizzy and the The Ludacris Foundation are here to serve those in need." says, Keshia Knight Pulliam, founder, Kamp Kizzy."(http://hiphopwired.com/2011/11/04/ludacris-keshia-knight-pulliam-partner-to-feed-over-250-atlanta-families-for-thanksgiving/)
