homeRadio One Rhythmic KBXX (97.9 The Box), Top 40 KROI (92.1 Radio Now) and Urban AC KMJQ (Majic 102.1)/Houston have partnered with Slim Thug and his company, Boss Life Construction as well as IJustGotHit.com to give members of the community hard hit by last year’s Hurricane Harvey the chance to win a previously existing renovated home. IJustGotHit.com purchased the home, and with the help of Boss Life Construction, the home will be fully renovated and given away to a deserving winner. The contest is open to previous Houston homeowners who lost a home last year during the devastation of Hurricane Harvey.

Slim Thug is a well-known hip-hop artist and a well-respected businessman and icon in the region. In 2015, Slim, along with partners Cory Crawford and Troy Green, launched Boss Life Construction and began rebuilding in the Acres Home area of Houston and have built as many as ten new houses on the same block.

Slim said, “It’s an honor to partner with a radio outlet that has supported me from day one, and IJustGotHit.com, an organization that has worked side-by-side with Boss Life Construction since the effects of Hurricane Harvey. Our collective goal is to turn the tragedy of Hurricane Harvey into a blessing for a family who deserves it most.” Pam McKay, VP/GM of Radio One Houston, remarked, “Our company goal is not only to REPRESENT the community we serve but to represent what it means to be a radio company that serves the community.”

Folks who lost their home in Hurricane Harvey can enter the contest by texting “HOUSTON” to 55000. Entrants that have extreme needs and meet the Terms and Conditions listed on the website will advance to a semifinalist round. Those semifinalists will then be narrowed down to ten finalists via random drawing. The finalists will be announced on Monday, August 27, and the Grand Prize winner announced on Wednesday, September 26.
