Antwan “Big Boi” Patton‘s Big Kidz Foundation held its 5th annual Holiday celebration at Atlanta’s historic Cyclorama on December 14, 2011.
The event, hosted by CNN’s Clyde Anderson, featured performances from students from Tri-Cities High School, Coretta Scott King Young Women Leadership Academy and Frederick Douglass High School.
There was also a performance by Gabbie Rea of Purple Ribbon Kidz and lots of fun for Big Kidz and grown kids alike.
As usual, it was a celebration filled with family, friends and entertainment from all of Big’s Kidz…

Big Boi presented the Renee Patton Scholarship to Charles Bennett.
The scholarship was created to aid students who are gifted in the arts and was given in honor of Big’s deceased aunt.

Big Boi’s Big Kidz Foundation has a mission to expose kids to the arts at an early age. Through after school programs and initiatives, the foundation encourages students to think outside the box (and outside of the comfort of their neighborhoods) and pushes them to explore the world, become great speakers, learn entrepreneurship, and hone their talents.
