Several families in Philadelphia are seeing their Christmas wish come true right before their eyes - being together for the holidays.
Meek Mill, rapper and co-founder of the REFORM Alliance, is paying off the bail of 20 incarcerated women from his hometown of Philadelphia.
"No one should have to spend the holidays in jail simply because they can't afford bail," Meek Mill said. "I'm grateful for the opportunity to help these women be with their families and loved ones during this special time of year." Five of those women were released Friday night and reunited with their families, including their kids, just in time to spend Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with their loved ones.
