Game Donates $10,000 For 6-Year-Old Los Angeles Shooting Victim's Funeral
Original Story Game may be one of the most tough-talking emcees in Hip Hop, but the Compton native may just have a heart of gold.
TMZ reports that Game is donating $10,000 to the family of a 6-year-old Los Angeles girl who was fatally shot outside her home this weekend.
The funds will go to cover the funeral costs for Tiana RIcks, who was shot when two men approached her family's Moreno Valley home and opened fire.
Tiana and her father were struck, with the young girl reportedly asking her father, "Are you okay, Daddy?" as she lay dying.
TMZ spoke with the young girl's mother, Marquia Macklin.
"Game told me that he heard about my story and was really sorry," said Macklin. "He said that he wanted to help out and put me in touch with his financial team."
Macklin was grateful for Game's generosity, but admitted that the donation "only covers half of the casket and the plot."
Game has been in a charitable mood as of late, offering to pay fines for pants-sagging citations in Wildwood, New Jersey. He also recently announced that he has plans to give away $1,000,000 of his money through TheRobinHoodProject.
Anyone with information regarding the shooting is encouraged to contact the Moreno Valley Police Department.
