Chris Brown raises $50,000 for Domestic abuse victims
Chris Brown made a surprise appearance at NFL MVP’s ’All Day on the Runway’ celebrity fashion show on Saturday, Feb. 16, during NBA All-Star Weekend.
Minnesota Viking’s player, Adrian Peterson, is the founder of “All Day Foundation,” a program supporting several domestic violence prevention programs. He pulled out the big guns for the fashion show — held on Feb. 16, during NBA All-Star Weekend — which raised $50,000 for the generous foundation — and Chris Brown made a surprise appearance!
The Domestic Violence Charity Fashion Show
Many celebrities joined the AD Elite girls’ basketball team to walk in the fashion show, including JJ Watt, Matt Schaub, Terrell Owens, Blake Griffin, Tramon Williams, Keyon Dooling and Robert Griffith.
When Chris, 23, showed up at the event, the audience was, understandably, surprised! However, Adrian had invited him to come meet the girls’ basketball team, where he posed for pictures with all of them, including Adrian’s girlfriend Ashley Brown.
“This is a cause that is close to my heart, and I appreciate that Adrian invited me to be here,” the R&B star said in a press release. “He’s a role model for any athlete or person. As far as his faith and determination are concerned, he is legendary.”
Adrian also supports Texas Council on Family Violence in Houston and Cornerstone in Minneapolis.
Chris Brown’s Charity Also Helps Victims Of Domestic Violence
Chris is no stranger to the charity world. For the past four years, he has been involved with the Jenesse Center in LA. Through his own charity, the Symphonic Love Foundation, he awarded 11 scholarships to the Debbie Allen Dance Academy recently.
Adrian explained that he was “impressed by the amount Chris gives back through his charity work and how he’s constantly striving to become a better man.”
“God can forgive, so can we,” Adrian added.
