Rapper Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson will give a concert to benefit his G-Unity Foundation at Six Flags Great Adventure theme park in Jackson, New Jersey.

Music superstar 50 Cent will perform at Six Flags Great Adventure on Aug. 29 at 7 p.m.

The 50 Cent concert will benefit the rapper’s G-Unity Foundation, which was founded to improve the quality of life for low-income communities. Hundreds of children from 50 Cent’s childhood neighborhood in Queens, New York, will be transported to the Six Flags in Jackson, New Jersey, that day for theme park fun and the rap concert. But the concert is also open to the public.

“I am constantly searching for ways to give back to the community that helped create me and contributed to my success,” said Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson. “I can think of no better way to do this than to help improve the lives of the young people that reside there through programs created by my foundation.”

You can buy tickets to the concert online. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to 50 Cent’s foundation.
