Going to her instagram, the top rapper shared the proud moment while also revealing details of her newly acquired parcel of land in Memphis.

“Bought my first piece of land in my city today along with giving back to my high school I graduated from & they named their media center after me,” she captioned the instagram post.

“God is good & life is great. I’m so thankful.” she continued

Breakdown of How The Funds Will Be Spent.

The Institution’s head Mr Kristopher Davis said they wanted to upgrade the facility so that students would be more interactive.

“We want to upgrade our system so students can be more interactive, so they can research and take their learning to the next level,” he remarked.

Besides, he gave a breakdown of how the funds would be spent:

  • $5,000 will be channelled towards supporting student incentives known as Glo Bucks
  • Another $5,000 will go towards purchasing updated software for the library computers.
  • $5,000 will be used to purchase modern seats and decorate the facility.
  • $2,500 will help in purchasing clothing, toiletries, and undergarments for needy students while a similar amount will be used in office management.
