The norm for sport stars these days is to live a life of luxury and excess, dining in fine restaruants, holidays of the most exotic nature, and cars swimming in the latest technology.
So with that back ground it has heartening to read of some stars spending their off season in more meaningful pursuits, giving back to the community, despite having no obligation to do so.
The most famous Australian celebrity to do so has been Steve Waugh, whose work in India has raised headlines through out the cricketing world. It would be great to see many stars be a credit to themselves and their country by adopting more of these initiatives to level the playing field, and to provide hope to those less fortunate.
