Russell Simmons Joins Efforts To Help Flint Residents

Last week, the company AQUAhydrate declared its intention to donate one million bottles of water to Flint, MI. Diddy, Mark Wahlberg, Eminem, and Wiz Khalifa were partners in the plan (Diddy and Wahlberg also sit on the board of AQUAhydrate). Today it was announced that 150,000 of these bottles will come from Russell Simmons's RushCard organization, and Simmons went to Flint to help pass out H20 on the ground.

"The AQUAhydrate team is doing everything it can to help with this issue," Diddy wrote last week. "Mark and I made an initial pledge to donate and are committed to the continued aid to Flint residents as long as they need it."
