Pitbull offers up private jet for Puerto Rican cancer patients

Pitbull is putting his private plane to good use.

The rapper, whose real name is Armando Christian Perez, offered up his own jet to cancer patients in Puerto Rico so they can travel to hospitals on the US mainland.

“Thanks to singer @pitbull for lending your private plane to transport cancer patients from PR to USA so that they can get chemo,” PR Congresswoman Jenniffer Gonzalez tweeted in Spanish Tuesday.

The vast majority of island hospitals lack power in the wake of Hurricane Irma — and some have been running out of fuel to power their generators.
