Cardi B Will Cover All Funeral Costs Of Bronx Fire Victims

Cardi B To Cover All Funeral Cost Of The Bronx Fire Victims

Cardi B has stepped in to cover the funeral and burial expenses for each victim of the tragic Bronx fire to alleviate the financial burden for the families affected. The 3x RIAA Diamond certified and Grammy Award-winning artist has committed to paying these costs, including repatriation expenses for some victims buried in the Gambia, through the Mayor’s Fund’s Bronx Fire Relief Fund.

“I’m extremely proud to be from the Bronx and I have lots of family and friends who live and work there still. So, when I heard about the fire and all of the victims, I knew I needed to do something to help. I cannot begin to imagine the pain and anguish that the families of the victims are experiencing, but I hope that not having to worry about the costs associated with burying their loved ones will help as they move forward and heal. I send my prayers and condolences to everyone affected by this horrific tragedy,” stated Cardi.

Cardi teamed up with The Mayor’s Fund to Advance New York City to ensure that all of the families of the victims in the tragic Bronx Fire on January 9th, 2022 were included and accounted for and that the final wishes for their loved ones were met.

Through The Mayor’s Fund to Advance New York City, the Bronx Fire Relief Fund has received thousands of grassroots donations as well as support from business and philanthropic community partners. For those interested in contributing or learning more about the Fund, please visit: www.nyc.gov/fund.
