Zakk Wylde to Donate $1Million 2007-02-09 by Jom | 10 Comments | Zakk Wylde is in the process of donating a $1,000,000 laboratory to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital over a five-to-ten-year period, according to Blabbermouth.
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is internationally recognized for its pioneering work in finding cures and saving children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. Founded by late entertainer Danny Thomas and based in Memphis, Tennessee, St. Jude freely shares its discoveries with scientific and medical communities around the world. No family ever pays for treatments not covered by insurance, and families without insurance are never asked to pay. St. Jude is financially supported by ALSAC, its fundraising organization.

Wow. Zakk rules.
| | |
not only is he guitar god, hes a saint. more metal artists should do stuff for the world and community. like Cradle of Filth should visit Compton, CA and talk to the gangtas about staying in school

Great to hear stuff like this. This is what people should be doing with money when they have it. And Zakk isn't even worth as much as a lot of movie stars that do not donate jack. Kudos.

My school still donates to St. Jude, I think...
This is really great.
| | |
This makes me warm and fuzzy inside.
| | |
by the way, that picture is priceless of zakk
| | |
This is the sort of thing I wish Zakk would do more often. Whenever he gets in the headlines, it's generally a toss-up between him doing/saying something really cool or really stupid.

The dude is cheap. He isn't even paying it all at once!
| | |
FUCK YOU GEOGRAPHY!

Well said, UD.
I love to see things like this from rockstars. It warms the cockles of my heart. My cockles are burning.
