Denzel
Washington Beats the Cold With Cash Gift
12/7/05
Denzel Washington has warmed the hearts and hands of Rocky Mount,
Virginia, residents - by donating $25,000 to a charity which helps people
struggling to meet winter heating costs.
The
Manchurian Candidate star, 50, made the generous gift to the Winter
Assistance for Rocky Mount program, as a gesture to his friend and Rocky
Mount native Herman Boone - whom he portrayed in 2000 movie Remember the
Titans.
The donation is thought to be the biggest the charity has ever received
in its 19-year history.
