Mike Epps Serves Up Nostalgia at McDonald's
31 Aug
Summary
- Comedian Mike Epps returned to a former workplace, a local McDonald's.
- The restaurant supported the Mike Epps Foundation's community initiatives.
- Epps was home for his annual community festival in Washington Park.
Comedian Mike Epps recently visited a McDonald's restaurant in Indianapolis, the city where he grew up and once worked. Epps took a turn serving customers through the drive-thru at the 6830 W. 38th St. location, reflecting on his past before his rise to fame.
This visit was more than a trip down memory lane. Three Indianapolis McDonald's restaurants designated a portion of their August 28 sales to the Mike Epps Foundation. Epps highlighted the significance of this partnership, noting that McDonald's was part of his story before he was widely known.
The Mike Epps Foundation is dedicated to assisting underserved communities through educational programs, mentorship, and neighborhood revitalization efforts. Epps' return to Indianapolis was also for the third annual Mike Epps Community Festival, held on August 29 at Washington Park. The festival featured entertainment, health resources, a Kids Zone, and a marketplace for small businesses.
