STEM School Highlands Ranch in Colorado suffered a huge tragedy this past week as they went through a shooting that injured eight students and killed one student, which was 18-year-old Kendrick Ray Castillo. Castillo was regarded as a hero as he tried to attack and stop the shooter.

Kodak Black recently paid $12,000 in notebooks to students in Texas and now wants to keep giving back in a major way. According to The Blast, Kodak’s lawyer Bradford Cohen reached out to Castillo and is offering to pay for his funeral. Kodak is also looking to create a $10,000 scholarship in Castillo’s name. Castillo wanted to go on to college and become an engineer.

“First let me tell you words cannot describe my sorrow for your situation. You raised an amazing young man that did an amazing thing. I know that those words cannot provide as much comfort as you and your wife deserve. I have a client that wished me to reach out and extend an offer for him to pay for any and all funeral expenses, as well as establish a scholarship in his name. Your son truly represents the inherent good in people. Again, I am sorry for your loss.”

The family hasn’t responded yet but due to them grieving, that could be the main reason for the delay. Salute to Kodak though on the amazing gesture.
