Atlanta, Georgia rapper Waka Flocka Flame is just one of a handful of celebrities who took part in the “Got Bone Marrow” charity basketball game yesterday at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas.
The event will be put on by the New York based non-profit organization Preserve Our Legacy to benefit one-year-old Daylen Parrish. Parrish was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia and is in dire need of a bone marrow transplant.
Other celebrities taking part in the game included Gotti of Cash Money, actor JD Williams, the Dallas Cowboys’ Bryan McCann, and more.
This isn’t the first time Waka Flocka has helped out a non-profit organization. Earlier this month the rapper teamed up with the Make A Wish Foundation to surprise a 16-year-old fan during a family visit to Atlanta.
Bet money Waka flocka doesn’t even know what bone marrow is….

Can’t hate on that. He’s been doing good things like this for a bit now. First, the Peta commercial, then the make-a-wish foundation, and now this. Can’t knock on this dude, you may not like his music. Overall, He seems like a good person, gotta love it. -TD
gotta give him props. at least he’s using his fame for some good for once. but next week he’ll be arrested for hoes and coke. sad.
you don’t have to like his music (can’t say I’m the biggest fan) but between this, Make A Wish & PETA you have to respect him as a human being
