Acey has a long history of giving back, at the age of 7 he started the B.E.A.T.S. (Bring Everyone A Tremendous Smile) Foundation which visits children at the hospitals local to him and gives them donated toys and teaches them therapeutic drum beats, he also served at the local food pantry until he recently moved. For these services he has been awarded an American Red Cross Youth Good Samaritan title and graced the front page of The Chicago Tribune.
