To show his concern for his community, Louis Williams has an annual summer camp at South Gwinnett High School for children the ages of 10–16. The camp is very successful and as showing his affection for the camp he states, "This camp means a lot to me because I can give back to a community that has done so much for me." In addition, Williams has recorded several rap tracks, and was even featured on fellow Philadelphian Meek Mill's "I Want It All." In December, 2011, Williams claimed his recognition saved him from an armed robbery attempt in the Philadelphia neighbourhood of Manayunk. According to his account, when the gunman tried to rob Williams, the gunman revealed he was a fan, and after he and the gunman, who did most of the talking, reached an understanding, he bought him McDonald's.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:
“... while one-half of the people of the United States are robbed of their inherent right of personal representation in this freest country on the face of the globe, it is idle for us to expect that the men who thus rob women will not rob each other as individuals, corporations and Government.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
“The dialectic between change and continuity is a painful but deeply instructive one, in personal life as in the life of a people. To “see the light” too often has meant rejecting the treasures found in darkness.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
