This is the first time I have heard of him going public about his charity donations most of what he donates is done quietly and without massive media coverage,he supports many many football projects around the world for unfortunate children all done without any fuss he is a true sportsman and a credit to his family,I applaude everything he does he is a true roll model in the sporting world.

It is a good thing, but of course most of his much more sizeable income comes from sources other than his salary.

glam I agree that it is good he does a lot for charity but how do you know if it is done quietly? I know he is not the only one.

It would be a strange world if David Beckham was the only person who does a lot for charity – quietly or otherwise. hmm

Jeez j07 It's a bit early in the morning for this much excitement !

Wow, what a body grin

gillybob Fri 01-Feb-13 11:37:09

I know of a really good "charity" that David Beckham could work on any time he likes.............. wink

Was a fantastic footballer;the total 'team player' who worked as hard to help his team mates score goals as he did to score them himself. Think he's a national treasure.

Blimey, J0, if ever I saw a photoshopped picture... hmm

He is rather lovely. And such a sweetie. I love the pictures you see of him with his children. Clearly adores them.

He's cute- but I hate the body art. Seriously he seems a nice man who has not let his success go to his head, who loves his family and is an altogether decent person. Would there were more among the "great and the good"!
