Bremen's Students Take On Chance The Rapper's Groceries Challenge

OAK FOREST, IL — Bremen School District 228 is asking for the public's help with getting its alternative-education students free groceries for a year.

The Delta Academy helps gives at-risk kids a shot at graduating from high school on time. This year, they're taking up challenge by Chance the Rapper. As part of the promotion of his new song, GRoCERIES, the rapper from the South Side of Chicago is challenging his fans to create videos of themselves dancing to his song. Chance, known for his public-school advocacy and philanthropy, will then pick his top 10 favorite videos, and pay for the makers' groceries for a year. He is giving extra attention to students who do it in collaboration with their schools.

Delta Academy's store stocks juice, granola bars and other snacks and incentives that not only nourish the students, but keep them motivated, as well. Students get points for good behavior and hitting milestones, then use the points to "shop" in the store. Watch their video to see how it works:
