Pitbull brings charter school students along to iheartradio award show

November 2016 – During his “Premio Corazon” acceptance speech at the iheartradio awards ceremony, Pitbull delivered a heartfelt message and mentions SLAM – Sports Leadership and Management Charter School located in the neighborhood where he grew up.  With SLAM students standing at his side on stage, Pitbull talked about building a school in his old neighborhood for kids that “nobody believed in.”  It’s an honor, he said, to be here “with kids that are just like me…that came from nothing but understand what it is to make something out of it.”  Pitbull has been a long-time advocate for parental choice and charter schools, and is a vocal ambassador for SLAM.
