The Charity/Special Events Thread #4: Because He's Always Willing To Support A Good Cause
Welcome to the Taylor Charity/Special Events thread: Because he's charitable and spontaneous, you never know where he might show up -In January 2008 Taylor, and avid hockey fan, participated in Luc Robitaille's Celebrity Shoot Out, a celebrity hockey game that raised money and awareness for the children's charity Echoes of Hope. -In September 2007 Talor took part in the Nautica Malibu Triathlon, which benefits Children's Hospital Los Angeles. Taylor is out to support fitness activities for kids. -In 2008 Taylor took a trip to Africa with Friday Night Lights co-star, Connie Britton, and toured Uganda and Kenya and become more aware of a charity called the African Children's Choir.
African Children's Choir http://i.imgur.com/3iGIseR.jpg?1 "Unfortunately, there’s a stereotype toward these kinds of things, and how dire it is over there. [You think] you can’t really help. I’ve been a huge advocate of these guys ever since [my first visit] because you really do see that you can make a difference. I’ve been a huge advocate for them and what they stand for and how they run their organization. I love kids, and the energy these kids have is unlike anything else. They’re so open and so free when you meet them, even through these circumstances. There’s a four-minute video I did on YouTube of what the African Children Choir does… Obviously it’s really dire, but it goes back to how happy these kids were to be able to go to school, be able to eat every day, be able to have the transportation to get to school."

I’m just literally overwhelmed with happiness for you. I can’t even read your recap yet — I’m too excited to sit still. :lol: Also, please don’t talk up the beard. :lol: I’m still with Kayla on this! |

I'm boycotting this thread in support of the beard. I'm hoping he's rocking one somewhere on his motorcycle right now.

I guess we'll see when he does the hockey game. |
Based on the photos from yesterday, there's an acceptable amount of scruff.

Spirit, which I generally refuse to fly with, has a $77 flight down to Austin for the ACChoir weekend...

Yeah it's been a long time since I've flown Spirit but I know they tag on a bunch of fees, but actually the same flight via Delta is just $177, still not bad.
