Global phenom Bad Bunny seems to have a good heart. At his concert last Friday in North Texas, the rapper-singer met backstage with an Uvalde school shooting survivor and gifted her with signed merch.
Mayah Zamora, 10, spent more than two months in the hospital following the May 24 massacre, which claimed the lives of 19 students and two teachers. She had to endure more than 20 surgeries for gunshot wounds she’d sustained to her hands, chest, arms and back, according to CNN.
In a Sunday post, the nonprofit Correa Family Foundation gave props to the Puerto Rican performer for giving back to Mayah at his show.
“A huge thank you to @badbunnypr for welcoming our Hero of the Month, Mayah Zamora, to your concert, and for making sure she had a beautiful and fun night dancing with her family!” the Facebook post read. “All the love she received from you and your team @noahassad @rimas made this an incredible experience she and her family will cherish.”

The Correa Family Foundation, founded by professional baseball player and fellow Puerto Rican Carlos Correa, had named Zamora “hero of the month” for August.
Bad Bunny has teamed up with Correa’s foundation before, CNN reported last month. They’d worked to help Mayah’s family get new lodging after she learned that the Uvalde shooting suspect lived “just blocks away from her home.”
