Flavor Flav, the hip-hop icon, is using his influence for a worthy cause. After learning that Kelly Pannek, a two-time Olympic gold medalist in women's hockey, had her car totaled in a hit-and-run incident, he took to social media to appeal to car companies for help. The incident occurred in St. Paul, Minneapolis, just before Pannek was set to fly to Milan for the women's hockey team's gold medal run.
'This one is for a REAL need and imma hopeful that an auto company gonna step up.'
Flav's post has sparked a wave of support, with many brands expressing interest in helping Pannek. However, as of now, it remains unclear if any companies have reached out to offer her a new ride. Despite this, it's hard to imagine that Pannek won't receive the necessary assistance.
'Lots of brands commenting that they want to help, but few truly stepping up. Who can help,??'
This story highlights the power of social media in bringing people together for a good cause. While it's great to see so much interest from brands, it's crucial to ensure that these intentions are followed through with concrete actions. Let's hope that Pannek gets the help she needs and deserves.
'As of now, it is unclear whether any brands have reached out to the two-time Olympic gold medalist with a new ride, but it's hard to imagine someone isn't champing at the bit to hook Pannek up.'
