The Twitterverse exploded Thursday when actor and comedian Kevin Hart pledged to donate $50,000 to Texas Southern University‘s Ocean of Soul marching band on the Tom Joyner Morning Show. MyHoustinMajic.com reports that Hart hung with Tom Joyner’s crew all morning Thursday to co-host and promote his new movie “Think Like A Man Too.” The news of the pledge was confirmed by TSU’s Alumni Relations handle and was retweeted by Hart himself.

On August 1 through 3, TSU alumnus Michael Strahan will be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. To honor his achievement and celebrate Tiger pride, the Ocean of Soul marching band has been invited to participate in the prestigious Enshrinement Celebration by leading the Grand Parade through downtown Canton and performing at the Fan Appreciation Tailgate Party on the Hall of Fame Campus. The Tom Joyner Morning Show will be in Houston Friday hosting live from The Breakfast Klub and later at Grooves for Happy Hour to raise money for Texas Southern University’s Ocean of Soul.
