    What is raler than helping people in need that are overlooked by society, as you can see he didn’t do this for the spot light because it was from the heart. Thats why I am a proud fan of Kobe. I’m always humbled when I? see people do things because its the right thing to do and it says a lot about the person doing it. Kobe Bryant is one of those dudes!!!

  • anonymousprofess says:

    Kobe and Vanessa are a beautiful team/couple. They both compliment each other in ways they probably will never overstand. I hope they never split and do wonders in helping many lives and set a? platform we all can learn from and in whatever way participate in. There is no way there should be homelessness in America, forget about drugs or no education. Lets focus on the real reason DENIAL. People are in DENIAL it can happen to them and in DENIAL it even exists, real talk from a Laker fan 4life!
