Pete Davidson wants to be the king of fatherhood and philanthropy.
The comedian, 31, has decided to trade in his wheels for something more fit for a father. As a result, he’s raffling off his Chevy Blazer to a lucky fan, with all the proceeds going to families of New York City police and firefighters who have been killed in the line of duty—specifically the organization Answer the Call.
As his own father, Scott Davidson, was a New York City firefighter killed during the 9/11 attacks, the cause is especially important to the dad-to-be.
“Hey guys it’s Pete Davidson, and you have an opportunity to win my K5 Blazer with a LS3 fuel-injected engine” the actor said in a promotional video from Altroo, the fundraising platform he’s partnering with for the online raffle. “Having a kid, so you can’t really drive a kid in a car that sounds like this.”
After showing off the loud “vroom” noises the car makes, he continued, “I am working with Answer the Call because it is my favorite charity. It’s also the charity that helped my family when my dad passed away.”
Emphasizing the organization’s impact, he added, “It’s an easy pick for me.”
