G Herbo purchased Overton Elementary School in his hometown of Chicago. He attended the elementary school as a child. The school has been closed since 2013.Instead of the building being condemned, G Herbo decided to transform it into a community center.He said the purchase allowed him to have an imprint in his community as a leader. "This is just about being able to lead by example for the next generation," G Herbo explained per HotNewHipHop. "We’re really just trying to change the narrative and lead by example ... and show the next generation that they can do what we’re doing even greater. We’re not saying we’re going to see drastic change tomorrow, but if we keep this up, there’s limitless opportunities and it’s limitless where we can go."
