"Dancing With the Stars" tv show star, Romeo Miller, believes being beneficent is just as important
as being a Hollywood icon. The ex-USC basketball player, Disney Star, CEO of No Limit Forever,
and son of Master, is proving he is more than a great entertainer. Teaming with his father
Percey Miller this week, the father son duo gave computers to academically excelling students at
Auduborn middle school in Los Angeles, California.
"This is extremely important to me, middle school children are at the age of defining their
lives," says Romeo Miller. "It is necessary for them to know people care and want them to do
well and sometimes when they do well, they are greatly rewarded, giving them the computers is
just our way of letting them know this."
A school once struggling to pull itself from the bottom of California's academic ranking had a
noteworthy improvement in 2011. The school which is surrounded by poverty and high crime rates,
had a group of corageous students that dared to be different. Working hard to change the image of
their school and student body, they even attracted the attention of Romeo Miller and Master P who
congratulated them with a free computer and valuable conversation.
Romeo Miller acted as an ambassador for the organization 'Urban Born'. Teaming with father,
Master P, and Sam's Club, Romeo brought new computers for students achieving academic excellence
and made them the stars of 2011.
"It's so important to come and support schools like this that are in the heart of the
ghetto," Master P said to a reporter. "These young students are our future leaders. It's
vitally important that we recognize them and help them to attain the proper tools,
equipment and technology to further their education."
