Co-founders and brothers Bryan “Birdman” Williams and Ronald “Slim” Williams of Cash Money Records partnered with New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell to cover the cost of rent for the month of June for residents living in low-income housing.
To date, Cash Money has donated over $225,000 to Forward Together New Orleans (FTNO), the nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization filling urgent gaps in community needs and available resources to protect our city during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“For at least 10-plus years now, there has been a focus on three areas that they [Slim and Birdman] feel that if they’re able to make an impact with it can have long-term effects and positively helping people and improving the lives of those in New Orleans and anywhere in general.
In the joint statement, Mayor Cantrell shared, “In years to come, when we look back on how our city came together to get through the coronavirus crisis, we will have no better example of leadership than the Williams brothers, these sons of New Orleans who make our city proud today.
When people work together who got the passion and the same goals of helping the city, the citizens, and the businesses of New Orleans,” said Slim.
