Bad Bunny helps buy new home for 10-year-old Uvalde shooting survivor

Following the tragic events of the Uvalde school shooting in May, the Puerto Rican artist teamed up with other reggaeton singers to provide support for survivors in the months that followed.

Former Houston Astros MLB player Carlos Correa shared via his Correa Family Foundation that Bad Bunny, along with fellow reggaeton artists Wisin and Yandel, made generous donations to help fund a new home for Mayah Nicole Zamora, a 10-year-old Robb Elementary student and survivor, following the shooting in May. Now playing for the Minnesota Twins, Correa visited his former team's stadium in late August, meeting Zamora on the field ahead of a clash between the two teams.

Zamora was seriously injured in the shooting in May, requiring more than 20 surgeries after being gunshot wounds to arms, chest, hands and back. During this time, she and her family discovered that the shooting suspect was living a few blocks from her old home, which made it a priority for them to find a new place to live to help her recover. Bad Bunny and his Good Bunny Foundation, along with Wisel, Yandel, TokenSociety.io co-founders James and Korrine Whipkey, Scott H. Weissman, and Allen P. Lu have provided substantial donations to help Zamora and his family fund a new house.

Furthermore, the Correa Family Foundation shared that the artist "Un Verano Sin Ti" hosted Zamora and her family at her concert in Dallas, Texas at AT&T Stadium on September 9. Photos show the artist, whose full name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, posing with Zamora and signing tour articles for her. Fuse TV further revealed that the singer treated Zamora and her family to a private suite, dinner and the backstage photo encounter before the show.
