Ludacris Honored At Ga. State Capitol
Atlanta rapper Ludacris was honored at the Georgia state Capitol for his philanthropic work with at-risk children.
Ludacris, whose real name is Christopher Bridges, was recognized Thursday for the work he’s done though the Ludacris Foundation, which was launched in 2001.
WXIA-TV reports Bridges said his foundation works teach children to lead by example and not to “wait on government institutions, social programs and politics alone” to improve communities.
