Game donated $10K to 6 year old victim’s family

Game may look and sound like a tough guy, but after reading a touching story about a little girl gunned down in front of her home, the rapper donated $10,000 to the victim’s family.

Tiana Ricks, the victim, was only 6 years old when gunmen approached her and her father outside of their home and opened fire on the two. “Are you OK, Daddy?” were her last words as she lay dying.

According to TMZ, while in Australia, the Compton native caught wind of the devastating story and immediately took to Instagram to post his response to the tragedy.

“This very sad story hit me in a place nothing ever has. The picture above is of 6 year old “Tiana Ricks” who was gunned down in Moreno Valley this past weekend holding onto her fathers leg as men approached & opened fire wounding both Tiana & her father…. Tiana did not know she was shot & kept asking was her father okay until 2 1/2 hours later when lil Tiana was passed away just after midnite on Sunday… I read about this story here in Australia & immediately tracked down her mother @lost_the_love_of_my_life & noticed her & the family trying to raise $10,000 for funeral costs…. So I got her on a 3 way with my accountant & now I’m in the process of transferring $10,000 from my account to hers !!!!! Follow her now@lost_the_love_of_my_life & show her support thru this tough time…… Prayers are definitely needed. My sincerest condolences to you & your family Marquia. Glad that I could be of some help….. I don’t know what else to say, but @therobinhoodproject got you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #TheRobinHoodProject,” he wrote as the caption to the photo above.

This is just one of the many charitable donations Game is expected to make. He has set aside $1,000,000 to give away through The Robin Hood Project.

Nas Helps to Raise $27k For A Homeless D.C. Man

Nas is doing good. The single dad is helping another father in need find a home for his eight kids.

The rapper started a crowd-sourced fundraiser to help Stanley Young, an unemployed construction worker in D.C., find a new residence after a fire destroyed his home. “They will be kicked out by August 13th if we don’t do something to help now,” Nas wrote on the Crowd Tilt site.

The Queensbridge, N.Y., native put $5,000 towards the $20,000 goal and then another $5,000 when that goal was hit. The fundraiser has raised more than $27,000.

“I am also a single father, and we don’t get enough credit in this country. I’m committed to helping Stanley and his eight (yes 8!) kids. Moreover, I believe and hope that we should all, as a community, come together to help our fellow American men and women when they need us in desperate situations like this. See if you can’t find a few dollars to help the Youngs get back on their feet with me. We need to raise enough to extend their stay, and maybe even afford a down payment on a new house or something,” the rhymer also wrote on Crowd Tilt.

There are nine days left until the campaign ends. Head over to Crowd Tilt to contribute.
