"&lt;a href=\"http://www.tmz.com/person/kanye-west/\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kanye West&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; spent 90 minutes gift wrapping presents for foster kids today at a charity event in NYC -- but he didn't do it for the publicity ... he did it because he happened to be in the area and he felt like helping out. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=\"http://www.tmz.com/photos/2010/11/30/3208-kanye-west-at-charity-event\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;&lt;img src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2010/11/30/1130-kanye-west-photo-launch-exd.jpg\" alt=\"1130_kanye_West_photo_launch_EXD\" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sources tell TMZ West was not scheduled to attend the &lt;strong&gt;New Yorkers for Children&lt;/strong&gt;'s 8th annual \"&lt;strong&gt;Wrap to Rap&lt;/strong&gt;\" event at the Ainsworth in NYC this afternoon ... but around 6:00 PM, he strolled right in and asked if he could help out. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're told some people at the event asked West why he decided to roll in -- and Kanye explained he simply felt compelled to lend a hand because he believed it was a good cause.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our sources say West cheerfully wrapped some of the 2,000 gifts that were donated by Wal-Mart ... and then quietly slipped out the back. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How's that for holiday spirit? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!-- relatedlinks --&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
