No word on 50 Cent's donation to Flint.

The city of Flint, MI is in the midst of a severe water crisis. Over 90,000 citizens have been exposed containing a toxic waste levels 10 times higher than the EPA limit. President Obama has declared a federal stage of emergency. As the state of Michigan begins its investigation, one out-of-towner is doing his part to assist the recovery process: Meek Mill.

According to TMZ, Meek has followed through on his promise to donate $50k to Flint. His money went to the Flint Child and Family Health Development, an organization working to combat the effects of lead poisoning caused by the toxic water.  He also donated 60,000 bottles of water to the Food Bank of Eastern Michigan, and he is reportedly donating his time in schools, homeless shelters, and hospitals around Philadelphia. None of which counts towards his court-ordered community service hours... he's still got that sentencing on February 5th.

Good for you, Meek. Meanwhile, 50 Cent is STILL taking shots at Meek on Instagram.
