Yeah did anyone else watch Soccer Aid last night? David Beckham was doing a thing to ask the viewers to donate so people in Africa can get mosquito nets. I'm 200% up for helping the poor but what really gets on my nerves is when he's on around 5mill a year,yeah £5million a year and he told us it costs £3 for 1 net and 1million people die of it every year. Well he's worth like more than £30million aswell and could easily save 1 million lives. Give them more money you stupid celeb. If I had £30million I would give £3million to save 1 millions peoples lives anyday. Anyway end of rant,everyone give to charity!!:D

But if one man just gives for it all, it may be an act of charity but it's not as wholesome and fufilling to know a whole nation stuck together to help them as one...

David Beckham has and still does donate to charity, just because he doesn't donate ALL him money doesn't mean he is being stingy.
Yeah I agree, if hes asking the public to donate money, Why doesnt he?
Maybe not 3 million though

He does :S thats what I have just said.
You never know he might of made a donation but it didn't get aired so you can't accuse him of not helping.
He does :S thats what I have just said.

David Beckham does donate...
Not just money but items of clothing (eg shirts) that he has wore that get auctioned by the charities for thousands
its amazing how many celebrities do actually donate, i didnt realise till i watched that Prince Charles 30th Anniversary
Also David Beckham doing that advertisement is kind of a donation in itself, as lots of people will see their 'role model' supporting the charity and therefore support them too

I think he does donate. Just they don't make a big thing about it.
And he is worth wayyyy more than 30Million, he earnt about 20M for his autobiography alone I think. :o He earns about 5M per annum from Football, then god knows how much from Pepsi, Gilette etc.
I think a majority of celebrities do Tbh, just keep hush about it. ;)

Personally i think if someone should donate it should be him and other rich people, i know he does donate but why ask us to if he is the one with all the money!

Personally i hate him. He's really stuck up. I mean, I can see craig's point, But he is donating, But he's not giving £3m to them, As he probably donates that much and spreads it around all the different charites(Spelling?
).
