R Kelly donates money after unprofitable charity gig
Published December 18, 2003
CMU reports:
R Kelly has donated $50,000 out of his own pocket to the Texas Military
Family Foundation after the fund raising gig he staged for them earlier this
year failed to make any profits. As previously reported a spokesman for the
charity last month told reporters they were yet to see a cent from the
event, while MTV reported the concert had made a loss. The charity yesterday
confirmed they'd now received a donation from Kelly, telling reporters: "It
is with heartfelt gratitude that we thank Mr. Kelly for his contribution,
and I am sure that the troops and their families that we support would want
us to thank Mr. Kelly on their behalf."
