CELEBRITY DO GOODER

This happenend in 2005 but hey its Denzel so you know I had to post it


Denzel Washington and his family visited the troops at Brook ArmyMedical Center , in San Antonio , Texas (BAMC) . 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 in the Hospital. BAMC has quite a few of these houses on base, but as you can imagine, they are almostfilled 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 checkbook out and wrote a check for the full amount right thereon the spot. The soldiers overseas were amazed to hearthis story and wantto get the word out to the American public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it.
