Clifford “T.I.” Harris and his wife Tameka “Tiny” Harris are definitely in the giving spirit this holiday season!
The cute couple recently launched “Give Like A King,” a charity that encourages individuals to give back and get involved in a big way.
For their first project, the “Give Like A King” foundation joined forces with the Veterans Empowerment Organization (VEO) of Georgia, to provide homeless veterans with housing, food, health care, jobs and mental health counseling.
[FLASHBACK: For Discussion: Is T.I.'s "Family Hustle" This Decade's Version of The Cosby Show?]
Standing near the streets of Bankhead, his old stomping grounds, Tip spoke of the importance of taking care of the those who put in service with America’s armed forces, stating:
No veteran should go without the foundational needs of a human being… be it shelter, clothing, nourishment, hygiene products… NO VETERAN who risked his life and his everyday liberties for my own should go without that.
So we have aligned ourselves with people who share in our enthusiasms and we are going to do as much as we have about that.
I don’t have a very very long reach, but I think my reach is just long enough to do more that has been or is being done in this area.
Through funds provided through his foundation, T.I. made sure at least 60 homeless veterans secured housing.

I want to salute all of you veterans and I want to thank you for all of your efforts, all of your energy, all of your fearlessness and we are going to go out here and we are going to do all that we can to make sure that you are assisted in the manner that you deserve to be assisted.
Because your country and it’s citizens owe that…
Major props to T.I. and Tiny for taking care of those in need in such a major way!

This man continues to use his money to improve the lives of others. While his past may have some checked spots, his heart and that of his wife are clearly in the right places. I wish them success with this new foundation and am hopeful that other celebrities will take note and reach into their hearts and wallets to support worthy causes.
I couldn’t have said it any better. I was thinking the same thing! It’s so nice to see how they have evolved as a people and truly are philanthropists.
Good looking out TIP and Tiny….Real noble…
As an Army wife, I really appreciate what TI and Tiny have done here.
TI is a person who has been given a second chance and now some homeless veterans will get their second chance.
Thanks!
TI is a stand up guy and I love his heart..this is a beautiful thing for the Harris family to do and I know it is much appreciated..we tend to forget out vets and what they have gone through to keep us safe..beautiful indeed
It nice to see them continue to give back.
Side note: Did anyone catch Tiny’s show yesterday. My sister said she enjoyed it. I watched up until the commercial break because I could not take Tamar’s voice and body movements for more than short amount of time. I think the concept and production of the show was cool but I just couldn’t take Tamar.
Cosign..I couldn’t deal with Tamar….they should get rid of her ASAP and the show could be a success.
What a stand up couple! I love them.
I’ve admired T.I from the day he stepped on the scene. There was something about his swag, and now I know why. I salute this man and his wife! Setting examples for their family and friends. Please folks….take some notes!!!
God bless!
When he’s not in jail and she’s not taking a charge for him then I guess so
I admire TI efforts of using his platform to provide aid to the homeless vets.
There goes the neighborhood.
Is anyone sure this isn’t part of his/their community service?
Also, were they on their way to the club, or did they just leave the club?
-"Haters in the building"out.
Hater is right. Neither of them have mandated commmunity service, they are not on probation.
TI does not wear a suit to the club, so poor observation. What have you done for the less fortunate this season? Probably only serve up haterade
Not to denigrate service to veterans, but its kind of dumb to compare this weekend wonder to a guy like Cosby! Maybe after another 25 years if he’s still in the public eye and contributing…then you maybe could. But until then you’re just hyping flash-in-the-pans.
The comparison was was based on his show not his philanthrophy..anything to hate
Beautiful!!!
I love this! There are too many homeless veterans out there who deserve so much more! Me being a vet myself much props to the Harris family. Glad someone is finally stepping up for the people who risked their lives to save ours!
Nothin’ but love for TIP and Tiny!
I love TI and Tiny….this is such a nice thing to do, I’m not a veteran yet but will be soon so this is just too heartwarming to me.
It’s a shame how some people just can’t give credit when credit is due. That’s why we as black people will never get ahead. Instead of applauding TI and Tiny for the good they are doing you have "SOME" that will always bring up the past and negativity.Move on people. I’m suer your lives and past aren’t squeaky clean. TI and Tiny I applaud you for doing everything you have done and the things to come. Continue your great work and don’t let the negativity get to you!!!
I really love that they are doing this! I really like both of them! I love their show as well! Keep up the good work, Harris’!
But…Tiny, not feeling the braids (not like my opinion matters).
