MIAMI BEACH — Fresh off the success of their latest album, Grammy-winning reggaeton stars Wisin & Yandel are donating $25,000 to the Habitat for Humanity of Greater Miami.

The duo from Puerto Rico also announced Wednesday they will donate $1 to the organization for every ticket sold for their U.S. tour this fall. Their show opens in Miami on Sept. 17.
Wisin and Yandel, the stage names of Llandel Veguilla Malave Salazar and Juan Luis Morera Luna, released their seventh album, “La Revolucion” in May. The lead single, “Abusadora” is No. 7 on the Billboard chart.
They also won Latin rhythm album of the year for a Duo Or Group for their last album, “Los Extraterrestres” at the 2009 Latin Billboard Music Award.
