Ludacris and T.I. are pitching in to help their Atlanta hometown rebound from devastating and deadly floods that have caused $61 million in damages and destroyed nearly 500 homes.

The Ludacris Foundation is teaming with Home Depot and Sam’s Club to assist victims, and each rapper is donating $10,000 to the effort, according to TMZ.com.

The foundation’s rep said they are planning a large food bank and a gift card giveaway that could happen as soon as Friday.

In other Luda news, the rapper will be honored for his philanthropic efforts at the Big “O” Youth Educational Dream Foundation’s bi-annual fundraising gala next month in Atlanta.

    That’s what I like to see, black men with money giving back to the community. Especially people in the entertainment industry…Ludacris, not only am I a huge fan of your music, but now you got my respect as a noble man. Keep setting positive examples for the young bucks out there. They will follow. I never really listened to T.I. but I am glad he is waking up and giving back as well.
