Denzel Washington Makes Contribution Toward Troop Recovery
Don't know whether you heard about this
but Denzel Washington and his family visited
the troops at Brook Army Medical Center , in
San Antonio , Texas (BAMC) the other day. This
is where soldiers who have been evacuated from
Germany come to be hospitalized in the United
States, especially burn victims There are some
buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher
House is a Hotel where soldiers' families can stay,
for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying
on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost filled
most of the time.
While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave
him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how much one of them would cost to build.
He took his cheque book out and wrote a cheque for the full amount right there
on the spot. The soldiers overseas were amazed to hear
this story and want to get the word out to the American
public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it.

The question is - why do:
Britney spears, Madonna , Tom Cruise and other Hollywood fluff
make front page news with their ridiculous
antics and Denzel Washington's charity
doesn't even make page 3 in the Metro section of
any newspaper except the Local newspaper in San
Antonio.

I guess it was Denzel's decision not to go on public about it. He's a kind and genuine person.
