Would you give money to another country and not the United States?
I just got a forward from a friend of mine and noticed it was something I had never really thought about till now.
The email went something like this, Oscar winner Denzel Washington visited Brooks Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas where troops are sent from Germany to the United States to receive medical treatment. They have housing around he hospital that family members can stay in while the wounded recover for little or no cost. Denzel asked how much it cost to build a housing unit for the families, he was told and removed his check book and wrote a check for the exact amount right there.
Now why is it that the only time we hear about celebrities giving back, its to another country?
I am by no means against giving to other countries but I just don't understand why more is not done in the U.S. as well.
