Denzel Washington Funds New Hostel For Families of Military Burn Victims

Asked how much it would cost to build a new one and wrote out a check on the spot.

I like Denzel. I really appreciated his Cheneyesque crimefighting techniques in Training Day. And also his kidnap & ransom skills in Man On Fire. Sticking a bomb up a guy's ass... nice.

Thanks to Brian.

Update: This story is kind of old, dating from a half year ago (go figure), and Lime Shurbet says Denzel didn't break out his checkbook on the spot, but did make a sizeable donation later.

He's got some nice pics of Denzel meeting the troops and their families.
