True to its mission statement, the nonprofit organization works to improve the quality of life for Puerto Rican youth and rising stars by supporting youth arts and sports initiatives in partnership with other nonprofit organizations.
The foundation led two relief initiatives that provided relief after Hurricane Maria.
After the disaster, the foundation distributed meals and completely rebuilt ten homes in the multi-platinum star’s home country.

The foundation has also helped with the “Play Ball Again” initiative to restore little league baseball fields in several communities.
In a 2019 press release from the initiative, Bad Bunny said: “Growing up on the island, I spent a lot of time in some of these parks that are now destroyed.”
He continued, “Similar parks have raised many great athletes like Roberto Clemente, Yadier Molina, Roberto Alomar, Edgar Martinez and Ivan Rodriguez.
“Our commitment is to rebuild these parks so we can help new athletes grow,” he said. “This is the first step in the rebirth of the sport on the island.
