Denzel is a man with integrity. He has the whole package. His wife is a lucky woman. He is my fantasy man for sure. BTW, no disrespect to his wife.

I know Denzo came up in da B/G club, butchu gotta really have ears out there to hear ANYTHING is goin' down in New Mexico. Give him his props, tha man believes in da B/G club.

...I know noone is more supportive of Boys/Girls clubs than Denzel, but I think sometimes he does it now just to get out of the crib...

Putting his money to a good cause. Honorable. I can respect that. That is why I actually go spend money on his movies. He makes me think he is not selfish and greedy.

Now, some other actors (ahem-no names)I will watch via bootleg from Big Vic nem round the corner.

Denzel is a class act.

i volunteered at a boys & girls club and i can say that its one of the greatest organizations for latch key kids. they help with homework and they open when the schools are closed so parents can drop their kids off and go to work. they also only charge $25 a year. i wish i had went when i was a kid and i plan on sending my child. i'm happy and proud that denzel did this.

I ain't gonna say nothin' bad bout no Denzel (cuz I know he has SERIOUS black female stans).

I will just say that he is really philanthropic and he and Pauletta have given away hundreds of thousands under the radar.

REPENT!!!! WILL SOMEBODY TELL ME WHERE IS THERE A BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB IN THE BLACK HOODS....CAUSE IVE BEEN DRIVING ALL DAY AND AINT FOUND ONE YET.

NICE DONATION BUT WHATS THE GOVERNMENT FUNDS FOR GOOD TAX WRITE OFF

REPENT!!! THE CHIP IS HERE

repent, the boys & g club i volunteered at was in a black neighborhood and my friend is the head of one that's in a black neighborhood. they also pick kids up from school, some school busses drop the kids off there, and they even have a van to drop some kids off at home if their parents can't come get them. i think a lot of black parents don't take their kids there because they don't know about it. but its heaven on earth and if i ever get rich, i'd donate a lot of money. its a gift to every child and neighborhood it serves.

i'm so glad he didn't call them hopeless and run to africa.

Spinster said...

He seems to have a big heart. He did something similar for a military base or military hospital in Texas and it was a blank check.

Good heart.

quesha said...

gotta love seeing something positive. i hope to NEVER see any scandals behind his name...so far so good:)

DaShit said...

All my school aged kids go to the same neighborhood BGCA that I went to.

$75/yr for a family. $50 otherwise. They charge $8 dollars a kid when school is out and thats from 7am-7pm.

I cant begin to say enough about the BGC of America. Please if you have kids, sign them up! Especially your teens. Our club has had the biggest influx of teens cause parents aint with that home alone shit in this day and age.

Shout out to Denzel and Pauletta! And LMAO at the old Adele Givens joke about the kid named after Denzel...

Adele: "Bitch, he gon' need a nickname!" LMAO

um, repent my parents were MARRIED for six years, had good jobs, and living in a house THEY OWNED before i was even conceived. second, for kids that have parents that work all of the dang time and have no guidance it IS heaven on earth. i saw a lot of kids that didn't have daddies at home and the men at the club served as role models to them. the girls were taught to carry themselves like ladies. i don't even think this is the real repent for making such an ignorant assessment of my statement, but if you really are wasting your time driving around looking for a b&g club, how about you drive around with some sandwiches and feed some hungry people on the corner?

Hope I never hear anything bad about Denzel.

i refuse to feed in to repent. he/she know they don't make no sense.

Wild Safari said...

This is really good news. I wish more celebrities (and regular folk too) would donate $$ and volunteer their time for charities and non-profits. B&G Club is a great organization, especially for working class families. Most of them are located in poorer neighborhoods because they serve families that can't afford other child care.

As for Denzel, I truly believe he is a good man. He and his wife walk the walk. I did hear a little something about him stepping out on his wife, but hell even MLK and JFK were unfaithful. *sigh*

I'm all in for Denzil doing good, yet I gotta say I havent heard a Mexican say nothing decent about black people out west here, matter of fact they have a pact to get in the gangs kill a black woman, went out to Georgia heard they had the same ish out there. All for helping when you got it, but it's too too many of us black folks like Kalid said, they gon be alright. Plus as you may see a Y in some black hoods but not enough of that many to be giving away money to Mexicans, see if they gonna come to a black hood a give you some Y money.

Actually, it's New Mexico the state, not Mexico the country. Don't know if that'll change your opinion of what he did, but just pointing it out.

..I remember I asked my 75 year old dad for a review of "Training Day" when he went to see it, and somehow he said VERBATIM what anon 5:18 said about the film...

VOD 7:53pm,this 5:18 back at cha' :), Boo, I know it's New Mexico, I live out west so I've seen the cultural make-up; white folks, mexicans and confused knee-grows and a hand full of black people, no harm meant but it doesn't change my mind, let's just call it 'lil' new mexico, well a write off is a write off, Denzil paying that white off tax, one of few Brothas in hollyweird that parades his Black woman around proudly and it won't be any mixed loyalities when inheritence comes around, lol snitchesssss

I think he would've made an excellent President if he was into politics. Shit, if "The Terminator" can govern Cali, anything is possible I guess.
