Vanessa Bryant to donate proceeds from photos lawsuit to Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation
A jury ordered L.A. County to pay $31 million in damages to Vanessa Bryant and a co-plaintiff over the sharing of photos from the scene of the crash that killed Kobe Bryant and eight others.Kobe Bryant's widow Vanessa Bryant will donate proceeds from the multi-million dollar judgment she won Wednesday in a lawsuit against Los Angeles County to a foundation named in her husband's and daughter's memory, according to her attorney.
Her lawyer said in a statement she plans to donate the proceeds to the Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation to "shine a light on Kobe and Gigi's legacy." The nonprofit Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation offers sports education to underserved athletes. Started in 2016 as the Mamba Sports Foundation -- Kobe Bryant's nickname was Black Mamba -- the charity was renamed in 2020 to honor the Bryants' 13-year-old basketball-playing daughter, Gianna, who died alongside her father in the January 2020 helicopter crash that prompted the lawsuit against the county.
"Those measures are the responsibility of the Sheriffs and Fire Departments - responsibilities that Mrs. Bryant's efforts have exposed as woefully deficient, even giving amnesty to the wrongdoers."
