Bennett donates money to many charity projects. He supports schools, art, and literature in his native Chicago. Many citizens are hoping he will become their next mayor. Chance’s friend Drake supports the idea, but Bennett himself doesn’t know if he will run or not. The next Chicago mayor election is planned for February 2019.
