I know it is not often enough that we hear good things in the media. More than likely we hear and read about negative things going on. I thought I share this.

Ben McLemore of the Memphis Grizzlies was doing his part to try to help end the violence in St. Louis. He held a free basketball Clinic for youths grades 1st-6th grades. He hosted a Charity Basketball Games. He also had an award show where he honored people that are leaders in the community. 

I was one of the recipients of the award. I'm really proud of this young man. He has been doing a variety of things to help less than fortunate children in the community. He is also doing things to assist their parents. He's giving his time and spending his own money to help.
