See Photos from Tarance Wheeler’s Annual Pre-Thanksgiving All-Star Giveback

Photos by Aaron J. Thornton It’s no surprise that Tarance Wheeler’s annual All-Star Giveback event drew thousands of people to Eastern Market earlier this week. The man has been described as having “a heart of gold” and “always willing to pour back into the community.” That’s exactly what he and dozens of his celebrity friends did when they gave out more than 3,000 turkeys and food baskets to Detroiters and Detroit-area residents just ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday during his annual giveback event. In the past, Wheeler has been joined by the likes of Multi-Platinum & Emmy winning Grammy Nominee Rapper Big Sean/Sean Anderson Foundation, Former NBA Players Derrick Coleman, Gary Payton, Willie Burton, Isiah Thomas, Rick Mahorn, Grant Long, Tim Hardaway, James “Budda” Edwards, Actor/Author Hill Harper, Former NFL Players Herman Moore, Lomas Brown, Rob Sims, Calvin Johnson, Wayne County Executive Warren Evans, Wayne County Sheriff Ray Washington, Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Lieutenant Governor Garlin Gilchrist, City Council President Mary Sheffield, and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson.
