Kanye West gives out $133,000

"All day" hit-maker Kanye West, 37, makes record donation of $133,000 to Chicago-based youth organization, Donda House.

He co-founded the house in honour of his mother Dr Donda West in 2013. Donda West died in November 2007 due to complications from a surgical procedure.

Part of the proceeds from his Louis Vuitton Foundation concerts goes to the art institution which helps growing young artists between 14 to 24 years and providing artistic direction through creative writing, record producing and health education classes.

Co-founder of Donda House, Che Rhymefest Smith says "Donda House has impacted the lives of over 160 young people in Chicago in its short history".

He also added that it was an honour to receive the donation.
