Underneath all the scandals and drama, Cyan Boujee proved that she has a heart of gold by giving back to her community.

The controversial YouTuber and content creator is famous for her larger-than-life personality and several scandals levelled against her. However, she used her notoriety for good when she donated food and supplies to the less privileged on 19 December 2025.

Real name Honour Zuma, the influencer and content creator shared photos from her day of donating food parcels with her team, and the tone of her caption highlighted gratitude for how far she had come.

"I went back to my hometown, just like I planned. With the help of my friends, we gave back — and it reminded me of when I was much younger, giving with the little I had. Today looks different, but the heart is the same."

In her post, Cyan also shared pictures from earlier in her philanthropic journey in 2019, when her good deeds, through the Reaching Out Foundation, touched lives and made a lasting difference. She expressed her hopes to revive the foundation and continue helping those in need.

"This is just an upgraded version of what I’ve always loved. Hoping this is the beginning of bringing the Reaching Out Foundation back."

Her food drive wouldn't be the first generous act Cyan has shown her supporters. In 2024, she trended after donating one of her wigs to her fan, and while that did not go without criticism, it's true that no good deed goes unpunished.

Reacting to her latest gesture, social media supporters erupted in praise for the DJ, while critics also shared their two cents about her donations.
