DeMarcus Cousins has been in the giving mood this holiday season. Cousins’ surprised a family with a new car, now he has taken 100 underprivileged children from the Sacramento area whom he had treated to a Christmas shopping spree. Cousins’ talked to Yahoo about why giving up to those in need is so important to him.
“It’s the greatest feeling ever…To me, that’s the real world. There is none of the basketball here. That’s a fantasy world. Putting a smile on kids, putting a smile on families’ faces, changing people’s lives with your so-called status and celebrity with your so-called impact, that’s reality.”
“Christmas is a financial strain on most families. I am going to do my part,”
Awesome of Cousins to not forget about his past but want to put a smile on kids faces for the holiday. Beyond just the gifts the kids get the opportunity to hang out with Cousins for the day. That experience may be priceless for some of the youths.
