Kanye West was joined by his celebrity friends in Chicago as he continues his mother’s legacy through the Kanye West Foundation with the 2nd Stay in School Benefit Concert. This is the first Foundation event since his mother’s passing and is unprecedented in size and scope as the Foundation partners with Chicago Public Schools (CPS), Fuse TV and S.H.O.W (Students Helping Our World).

Kanye rocked the Chicago Theatre on Thursday, June 11th - twice in one day - in typical grand fashion while underscoring the importance of student retention and graduation in the nation’s high schools.  The day of events began with a press conference, followed by a free show for kids from 6 area schools who have improved their grades and concluding with a benefit reception and concert.
