On Sunday, Mangold held a "Mamba Mentality Bootcamp" to benefit the Mamba & Mambacita Sports Foundation.
In January, Mangold raised more than $1,600 on behalf of the Australian Red Cross for its wildfire relief efforts.
"She's always been like that. Reaching out and helping people in our neighborhood," Mangold's father told FOX 29. "She's got a big heart and loves doing good for people."
Kobe and Gianna were laid to rest during a private ceremony on Friday, Feb. 7, in Corona Del Mar, California, according to their death certificates.
Bryant's widow, Vanessa, announced Thursday that the Mamba Sports Foundation was renamed in honor of Gianna, "because there is no #24 without #2," she wrote in a post on Instagram.
The nonprofit aims to further Kobe and Gianna's legacy through charitable endeavors in sports.
