Ha, too funny. You know, that actually wouldn’t surprise me if it were true.

Donation should normally com from the heart, and not just give so that people know you do. If you choose to help a random kid around the world, its not to be known, but because you feel for him. As for Steve, he is NOT obliged to give money. I am pretty some of you reading this have never given. You must not have much to give, the little you have, you can give (even if its a dollar). So stop judging others on their actions, and nothing proofs he does not give in private.
funny though
