To see you\u2019re paying for every one of those 17 funerals in your native #Bronx is the realest headline I\u2019ve seen in a while. Prayers out to the families who lost loved ones and those who are recovering. God bless you @iamcardib \u2014 story is on @TMZpic.twitter.com/cSYKPS34e9

I would rather see this news than the other silly stuff that\u2019s on our time line! Awesome, very good deed. Good to see her putting money towards a good cause!

I love Cardi B. She knows and didn't forget where she's from, the boogie down Bronx.

Paying it forward You are a good person What it means when you are a QUEEN who loves back If you give back you are rich for allWays

Good for her. People can bring up her past but if she\u2019s going out of her way to help people you can\u2019t hate on her for that. That\u2019s a very kind and mature gesture from a very young person who came from nothing and knows what it\u2019s like to struggle.

So she's got a wap and a heart of gold.

Can\u2019t take away from that. A really kind and generous offer from a total stranger out of respect for her home. \nCan\u2019t take anything away from that, that\u2019s kindness and love.

Let's not forget though that this was the landlords fault. They failed to provide safe and quality housing that led to their deaths.

When a celebrity does more to help people than the govt, insurance, and billionaire business owners combined.

Not minimize what Cardi is doing, but you mean to tell me the city of New York couldn't help these families? It took one rich person to do it? A lot of respect to Cardi B and PLENTY of disrespect to the government officials of NYC.

Cardi B has frequently helped more people during large disasters than the US government has

Wow, that\u2019s huge!! #CardiB is truly helping people who need the help. I would love to see other celebrities, politicians, and other wealthy people in general step up in the same generous vein to help those who need the help in our current crazy economy.
