The Relief Gang and their leaders for the last 150 Days have had one goal, rebuild Texas.
Still adopting homes, he and his team have boots on the ground daily.

Trae was given the Congressional Hero Award from Congresswoman Sheila Jackson-Lee for his ongoing commitment to help restore normalcy to people affected by Hurricane Harvey.
He also met with Houston’s Mayor Sylvester Turner aT “The Mayor vs The Council Members Charity Basketball Game,” to officially receive the Key to The City of Houston, initially given to him in the summer at “Trae Day,” a day to give back to the city of Houston.
The rap legend, no stranger to charity, partnered with Cigna and JCPenney to adopt nearly 200 families affected by Hurricane Harvey to give away a $70k shopping spree.
Nearly 1,000 people, parents with their kids in tow, filled the department store with sounds of laughter and tears in search of clothes and household items.
