(Radio.com) Rapper 2 Chainz is a well known and very successful hip-hop artist, but as a child his family struggled to make ends meet. Today, he doesn't take his success for granted. And in a beautiful act of "paying it forward," he rapper surprised military veteran Deirdre Plater by paying her rent for an entire year and refurnishing her home.

He was able to do this thanks to the sales of his "Dabbing Santa" ugly sweater. A portion of the proceeds of the sweater's sales go to his T.R.U. Foundation, which helps needy families who receive financial support from the state of Georgia.

The special moment 2 Chainz told Plater what he had done for her was caught on camera. "#DabbinSanta started out as a trendy guy but has grown & become a blessing. Not only did he stop eviction for this lady who served our country and help keep a roof over her sons head but he fully furnished there home!!

"All of that was made possible by YOU supporting #DabbinSanta Lets keep it going!!! If you know someone in need this holiday please share your stories [email protected] A photo posted by 2 Chainz Aka Tity Boi (@hairweavekiller) on Dec 6, 2015 at 9:56am PST" Read more and take a look at the emotional video here.
