Tekashi 6ix9ine (real name Daniel Hernandez) attempted to do a good deed by donating $200,000 to the non-profit No Kid Hungry. According to TMZ, the money came from new merch and the $2 million he earned off his record-breaking comeback video for “GOOBA.”
6ix9ine made the announcement via Instagram on Tuesday (May 12), writing, “During this pandemic I understand we have nurses and frontline Hero’s who risk there life daily to save others. But NEVER forget the children & families who depend on OUR PUBLIC schools for daily meals and nutritions to keep our future leaders growing to their best potential.
“To every influencer out there REMEMBER if you are blessed GOD gave you that blessing not just for YOU but also TO HELP OTHERS. GOD FIRST.”
But evidently, No Kid Hungry isn’t that desperate for funds.
No Kid Hungry’s director of strategic communications Laura Washburn tells HipHopDX the Share Our Strength program is declining 6ix9ine’s donation.
“We are grateful for Mr. Hernandez’s generous offer to donate to No Kid Hungry but we have informed his representatives that we have declined this donation,” Washburn said in email statement. “As a child-focused campaign, it is our policy to decline funding from donors whose activities do not align with our mission and values.”

The coronavirus pandemic has made the need for food donations even more dire. As stated on the No Kid Hungry website, “1 in 4 kids could face hunger” because of COVID-19.
6ix9ine was released from prison last month after being granted a compassionate release due to coronavirus concerns. The polarizing Brooklyn rapper was arrested in November 2018 on racketeering charges stemming from his involvement in the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods gang.
While 6ix9ine’s donation may have been rejected, Hip Hop has stepped up during the pandemic with many artists contributing to their hometown communities. Eminem recently donated “Mom’s Spaghetti” to local Detroit healthcare workers, JAY-Z and Rihanna’s foundation donated $2 million towards COVID-19 relief efforts, Lil Durk handed out meals to frontline workers in Chicago, Killer Mike and T.I. are distributing 1,000 meals each week to families in need in the Atlanta area and Diddy has hosted multiple virtual town-halls to discuss pressing issues during the pandemic.
Now that’s crazy.
I am no supporter of 69 but this is pretty dumb. Take the money and feed the fucking children.
That’s why they’ve rejected it, He got in trouble before for fucking the children.
He a sex felon
The food doesn’t come with his dick in it.
I guess its cool if rkelly donated too for the young hungry girls right?
No they just sue him for everything after
Everyone has standards! This charity has standards and this clowns money is dirty and they are setting a hard lesson for children. I also believe they should take the money Especially during these trying times. But I understand their stand.
I really couldn’t give a shit about what lowlifes this guy snitched on.What I don’t like about this pos is that he’s a convicted child sex offender. The charity clearly knows about his past too and obviously can’t take donations from a convicted pedophile.
Y the fuck would they take his money if hes a convinted sex offender nevermind his snitch shit he has a record of fucking wit lil girls this stupid fuck says take the money from a pedophile i bet he’ll let him babysit his kids or lil bo n sister pussy u lame like him and wouldn’t trust anyone who sticks up n speaks up about this snitch/pedophile this new Gen is ok wit snitching n pedophile pussies
yo broke mama would be on his dick for 200 let alone 200k. Yo mama would let him screw her daughter
Smart move rejecting money from a pedophile
whats with the hate for this kid?
Hes not a kid hes a 25 year old grown man and a pedophile you weirdo. You might be a chomo too you
Because hes a cu(‘)t.
Because he snitched on someone who fucked his bm,kidnapped him and tried killin him caught ona wiretap, stole money from him and tried kidnapping his momma
If he actually cared about kids so much. He can donate anonymously or via a third party. He’s crying becus he wanted to buy a nice-guy image and they didn’t fall for it. He lies to kids telling them his actions make him rich and happy. He’s terrified of being killed and is broke, all the junk he buys is LOANED high interest DEBT from record company. He has to follow police orders for ever. Judge says he can be locked up in m3ntal h0spital any time. Even tho he has zero m3ntal health diagnoses (mku1tr4 much?) . He is following police instructions. He their agent. Employee. His job is to make Police glamorised, acceptable in rap. Destroy the culture forever. He working for police since pedo incident minimum, likely earlier. F4ke views, f4ke streams, and his snitching obscene. He even snitched on ppl entirely unrelated to the case, becaus he was “clearly relishing” it “enjoying being centre stage” journolists observed in court. His BM says he “n4rcissist” sounds about right. And the music trash.
I’m not trolling I’m asking for real where it says he can get sent to a mental institution. I know they got that in the state joint where I’m from but you gotta be in prison about to get out and you gotta have done a bunch of time
Shit forgot about the chomo shit haha now it makes sense nvm forgot all about that with this piece of shit
Snitch 9 aka Tranny Hernandez aka Pedoshi aka Chomo 9
Lloyd Banks recently put out 2 amazing freestyle joints for the first time in years , but yet we’re talking about this rainbow haired fool?!?
Why do you think that is? Complex media has been paid enormous amount to keep him visible and Complex runs the marketing dollars for 95% of Urban websites. So, there you go.
3 now. Dude just snapped outta nowhere. I love it.
“Your Money is NO GOOD here!!”
The No Kid Hungry foundation has my full support and respect on this move. This is not genuine, rather than just another public relations stunt to add to the long list of disrespect he puts out on a daily basis. Finally, an organization with some dignity.
Right dude is a pedophile don’t forget about him having a young girl doing things that she should have not been doing….
all that aside I’m sure the hungry kids would’ve liked it. you sir are the donkey of the day
You gotta know that you ain’t shit when you can’t even give money away…LOL…Great decision by the No Kid Hungry Foundation.
