Who's Doing Good
Welcome to our new "Who's Doing Good?" page where we feature celebrities, musicians, athletes, and companies that are helping to make the world a better place.



"I think we all have a responsibility to give something back, to leave this world a better place for our having been here. For me that means giving something back to the good people who helped to shape me and give my life purpose and direction. And that's the Boys & Girls Clubs of America -- at the national level, and at my home club in Mount Vernon. So that's what I do.

For the past several years, I've been a proud spokesperson for the organization. It's a role I've taken on gladly because I can't think of a more noble or fulfilling mission than to guide our young children and to lift them up and set them down on the right path.

That's the mission of the clubs all across this great land--in our inner cities and our outlying communities, in rich neighborhoods and poor and every place in between.
